Re: how to update Nokia N810 to maemo 5

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



what is the life cycle of Nokia Nx series ? how many years  ?!
Can you compare it to the rest of the hardware manufactures ?

can you compare to other Nokia mobile phones ?

it seems that Nokia creates such hardware and make it for geeks to have kinda of free R&D research community, imagining that geeks do not care about money, they just care about the toy/gadget

I still appreciate that some1 from nokia gets into this discussion LOL

please when you say Meego is supported on N900, send references and links

kind regards
Sam

I've been around since the Nokia 770, so you don't need to tell me...
Technology moves on and if Nokia would stop developing new devices,
competitors would go ahead and get the advantage.  If something does not
sell, you have to try something else.

What I've read, N900 is the official ARM platform for MeeGo and
certainly supported. You can install MeeGo platform on N900 already now.

Money comes from sales.  How many people would be enthusiastic of buying
something like N810 nowadays?  You cannot sell the same device for years
and years, it just gets old at some point.
