Screenshot From Most Impressive Device in 2009?
Eldar Murtazin from Mobile-Review shows off a screenshot from a device supposedly running Maemo 5 on his personal blog. If that sounds familiar to you, you’ve probably heard of Nokia’s Internet Tablets like the N800 and N810 too. What’s also interesting is that Eldar mentions it will be the most impressive device in 2009.
The article is written in Russian, so I’m reading it through Google’s translator. It looks like he also calls out S60 as absolute junk. I’m not surprised to read that because I’ve seen many people say the same on many forums.
Let’s analyze the screenshot a bit. It looks like the battery is 75% full, but there’s one hour left of usage? Not a good sign! It’s too early to speculate, but I think that was worth pointing out.
I can’t wait to see what Nokia and Maemo is cooking up. I wasn’t a big tablet user before, but if Mr. Murtazin says it will be awesome, I’m already interested.

I think maybe the battery indicator is showing the amount already used–one hour down, 3 bars (hours) left.

Symbian is junk !
It's just that it stinks far less than other junk alternatives out there …

I would go and suppose that, since you have a battery indicator on the upper left, the two bars show the free space left on the (traditionally) two flash storage cards. (n800 had two sd cards, n810 had one internal flash and one microsd card)

even if this shows the amount of time used (battery indicator) you think that 1 hour of use would take one bar down? and btw this is most probably…if original gng to be an nseries phone because the name of the bluetooth is nokia nxx..wonder what the double x's are for

Just which junk alternatives does it defeat? Not being a smart-ass–since I may have to leave the world of Nokia soon, I'm curious as to your order of crap. And tho' I'm weakening, I still choose not to get trapped by Apple and their lock on their products.

LOL–I think it's better than Mark's suggestion, that there's only one hour left! If it is some sort of tablet, four hours would probably be good.

this phone is the n900

I can't wait for this piece of art to come out! I've specifically installed Linux on one of my machines to familiarise myself with the capabilities.

The battery life seems worrisome to me too…
