I'm writing this after a whole week of playing with my new toy (courtesy of WOMworld/Nokia). Most of what's here are gotchas, which any new owner will learn within an hour. Some others by the end of the day. And some almost never until/unless you actually try it out. Hopefully this will ease any frustrations of a new user, but mostly I'm writing this down to manage expectations. Know what you're buying before you get one. Most of what I'm writing is (for one reason or another) not provided by the Marketing Guys at Nokia anyway. ;) If this is too long go ahead and read a href="http://dartarrow.net/what-you-need-to-know-about-the-nokia-n900-minified/175">this instead]]> http://dartarrow.net/20-things-to-know-about-the-n900-before-buying-one/150/feed 0 http://dartarrow.net/using-nokia-n900-as-a-modem/137 http://dartarrow.net/using-nokia-n900-as-a-modem/137#comments Mon, 01 Feb 2010 18:04:17 +0000 dartarrow http://dartarrow.net/?p=137 turning it into a modem. This applies to someone in my scenario who is connecting a Nokia N900 to a Linux machine (also known as tethering). However it should apply the same to any other machine using the same concepts. Which is that you can plug the phone in, expect it to register as a USB modem, and use a dialer to dial out. ]]> http://dartarrow.net/using-nokia-n900-as-a-modem/137/feed 1
