NOKIA - The Nokia N900 shipments have started

NOKIA PRESS RELEASE November 10, 2009

The Nokia N900 shipments have started

The Nokia N900 shipments have started
 
Espoo, Finland - The shipments of the Nokia N900, Nokia's latest mobile computer based on open source Maemo 5 software, have now started. The Nokia N900 will be available in retail stores in November with an estimated retail price of EUR 500, excluding sales taxes and subsidies.
 
"The Nokia N900 has generated a lot of interest since its public launch in August, which has been reflected in the device preorders," says José-Luis Martinez, Vice President, Nseries, Nokia. "What's exciting is the Maemo software, which takes its cues from the desktop computer and offers a full browsing experience like no other handset. We believe the Nokia N900 will be a very compelling device for people who are passionate about technology."
 
 
At the heart of the Nokia N900 is its powerful ARM Cortex-A8 processor and up to 1GB of total application memory.  Users can browse the internet the way they would on any computer and keep dozens of application windows open simultaneously on the dashboard. The panoramic desktops in the Nokia N900 can be personalized with widgets, contacts and shortcuts. Pictures and videos taken with the 5Mpx Carl Zeiss camera automatically show where they were taken, and users can add their own description tags to make searching the photos even easier. SMS and instant messages are organized as chat flow and people can convenienty switch between the multiple conversation windows. The built-in 32 GB storage is big enough to store up to 7,000 songs or 40 hours of DVD-quality video, and it can be expanded up to 48GB with an external microSD card.
 
Nokia works closely with the developer community and has recently seen significant innovation happening with Maemo. As a result, people will be able to discover a wide range of games, utilities, themes, panoramic wallpapers and service plug-ins for photo-sharing and messaging for the Nokia N900 through Ovi Store and Maemo Select, starting later in the year. In October Nokia announced official Qt port to Maemo 5. This means developers can use Qt software to target the Nokia N900 and that applications can be easily ported to all Qt's supported platforms including the next Maemo 6 release as well as Symbian.
 
The Nokia N900 will initially be available in Europe, Middle-East, Russia and North America. It is also possible to order the device from the Nokia Online Store: http://europe.nokia.com/buy-online

Great Broadband Internet Facts

By Brianuna Hedderun

We have all heard the term "broadband" but what exactly is it? Broadband is a term for an internet service that is more than two times faster than a dial up system. When using a dial up internet connection you probably are making use of the telephone line to access the internet.

With Broadband, a telephone line is not necessarily necessary. You can access the internet much quicker and not have to use your telephone line to do it if you have broadband services. No more missing phone calls because you are online or getting kicked off line because a call comes in while you are on the net.

Broadband is very much faster than dial up, and this is exactly what has made it so popular. Because of this increased speed it has opened up a whole new world of possibilities, such as downloading music files and even movies. It is something called bandwidth that enables this faster speed. If you picture a water pipe, you can understand that the bigger the diameter of the pipe, the more water it will allow passing through. Broadband operates on the same principle. The bigger the broadband capacity, (normally referred to in mega bytes), the more "traffic" (electronic data) it will allow through.

In essence, broadband gives you the facility to surf the net so much quicker. Most companies sell their services by extolling the amount of bandwidth they provide. But they also play down the fact that the more people that are using the service, the slower it will be, and also, in some countries, the farther your connection point is away from the closest exchange, the slower the service can be.

Broadband services are usually oversold on the principle that that not everybody will want to surf the net at the same time, and in the great majority of instances this is true. Slowdowns because of heavy traffic are usually few and far between.

Many of the people that use the broadband systems do so just to surf for information or products. This does not use much space in the bandwidth. The difference between someone just performing normal search functions and someone that is downloading movies or downloading music is probably three or more fold.

Broadband has revolutionized the way that we use the internet today. Using broadband it takes only seconds or a few short minute to download songs and movies, whereas as with dial up it could literally take hours and you often get "timed out" if you try.

Yes, it is true that dial up is mostly free (just paying for the cost of the calls), but most people are more than happy to pay a little more money and receive a far superior service.

For the great majority there is only one choice; broadband! Once you have tried it out for yourself, it is extremely unlikely that you would ever consider going back to dial up again.
