Episode 37: First impressions of the Nokia N900 (Part 2)

So here we are with Part 2 of my Nokia N900 Maemo ‘play around’. I deliberately didn’t play with the device prior to filming so you’re witnessing me learning how it works and messing around with it real time.

You can find Part 1 of the first impressions here.

    Did you find the volume eventually? I would have tapped on the clock/battery/signal area, but that's because I've used the older tablets.

    I can see there's no volume icon there on your video, though there seems to be one on the N900 website. Does the icon disappear when the volume is turned all the way down? That'd be a bad UI decision.

    Yeah the volume options are on the right — it just seems they don't work when you're in the browser (as they're used to zoom in and out of the page)

    Volume should be available through the “status area” (3G status/WLAN status/battery etc) next to the “app switcher” menu that is always available.

    Wow, I really enjoyed watching this video. I'd like to know how the video recording and pictures match up to the n series (I have an n82, which i always carry for sole purpose of pictures/video recording).

    If there is a qik or ustream program available, could you try a video of that.

    How does the double leds compare to the n97 and n86.

    If they make a 3g version compatible with US ATT and higher capacity battery, I couldn't resist getting one.

    Thanks and please keep us informed on your impressions of the n900.
