Nokia N900 review

A cracking effort from Nokia let down hugely by a resistive touch screen. The chaps over in Finland will tell you that the Nokia N900 is not a successor to the N97. It's an internet tablet, the flagship N-series is a phone. But with its touch screen skills, QWERTY pad, smart phone OS and stellar connectivity this really does look like the sequel to the year-old N97. 

So how does it stack up? Read our full Nokia N900 review now for our verdict. The main buzz about the Nokia N900 has centered on its operating system. Instead of the aging Symbian S60 OS found in all Nokia's top end blowers, Espoo has opted for Maemo 5 instead. And we're pleased to say the results, as far as the OS is concerned, are every bit as good as we hoped. Maemo 5 is a far more intuitive OS than S60 and certainly edges out the N97 for ease of use. The menus are clear and straight forward, so you won't spend ages rooting around for what you want when you need it. It feels way more powerful too, with the Nokia N900 dealing with multitasking at lightning speed. Open more than one app or web page and you'll get all your tabs and program me info in one handy window. It's every bit as neat as the multitasking on the Palm Pre. 

The Nokia N900 also has a stunning status bar for IM and the fact you can add Face book and RSS contacts easily, just like on the Nokia 5800, is a move which shows this is far more than an internet tablet: it’s a smart phone with social networking on the brain.

Prototype Leak, 'Antennagate' and Verizon of iPhone 4

The iPhone 4 has already been amazed the world with its radically redesigned look, which Gizmodo revealed early after getting its hands on a prototype.There is no question about the fact that iPhone 4 is more smarter, more reliable and easy to operate capability.

A 3.5-inch Retina Display put pretty much every other smartphone display to shame: At 960×640 and bearing a 326ppi pixel density, it offered pixels smaller than the human eye could detect. The iPhone 4 was also encased front and back by slim slabs of glass, and ringed by an aluminum rim. This is why it is looked more beautiful. The visual conceit was slick, and Apple received kudos for its smart industrial design refresh.

iPhone 3G, the App Store and iOS 2.0

Apple's second generation iPhone had been debuted in the summer of 2008. Internally, it was largely identical to its predecessor: same processor, identical type of display, same 2.0 megapixel camera, and same amount of memory. The new era has begun when iPhone 3G came to market. But the iPhone 3G, as the name implied, now supported 3G network operability, as well as GPS.
