Should I get the new Nokia N900 for AT%26T? I currently have a N97, I had it for going on 3 yrs but am looking to upgrade. My only thing is that the phone doesn't support 3G, only 2G speeds. Should I hold out for another 6 months to a year to see if they release a 3G version or will 2G speed really effect me to much seeing as I don't use internet on the phone to much?Unlocked Nokia N900 for AT%26amp;T
hmmm i say get it, but i thought they had the bands to support 3g on ATTUnlocked Nokia N900 for AT%26amp;T
I would think that they would have put it in the phone but N900 supports T-Mobiles 3G at 1700 MHz not AT%26Ts which is the faster 1900 MHz. Nokia's official statement:
Regarding the Nokia N900, we have announced a tri-band WCDMA version that utilizes the 900/1700/2100 MHz networks. There have been no announcements regarding a version that supports the 850/1900/2100MHz bands
I really want that phone.
I just got a N900 which I upgraded to from a N95-8GB and a 5800 Xpress Music and so far speed has been great. I have AT%26T so I no longer have 3G only 2.5G aka EDGE. To be honest 3G reception was so spotty I really dont notice a difference. Using dslreports.com I was able to achieve 224kbit/sec which isnt too far off the usual 3G speeds of 250kbits - 600kbits. But I gotta say the WiFi is insanely fast on the N900. To me, the N900 and the Maemo platform is everything mobile computing should be. Graphics and specs wise it actually exceeds a Wii...lol, play Bounce Evolution and Quake3 Arena on it and youll see what I mean.
