What exactly is it about the USA?

My whole life I've been buying Nokia but we can all agree that the US is being treated unfairly (unless they're not telling us the reason).  First I'm very confused as to why I called Nokia telling me the N8 is unlocked yet their website says AT&T and T-Mobile.  If you live in the US I'm sure you know US blocks several things on the device which is why I always go for unlocked phones.  I'm sure the map will be locked too.  Second, why can't they give me an answer as to whether or not the phone will be available in other colors than black?  I want the silver damn it!  Has anyone read about it being available in silver?  We're only 3 weeks away.

When someone says unlocked, generally they are talking about GSM phones.  In the US, the only two major carriers that use GSM are AT&T and T-Mobile.  Most in the US are CDMA. Unlocked means SIM free and no "bloatware" or other programs from a carrier.
As for the other colors, if you look on the Nokia USA site for the N8, there's a banner ad that says that other colors will be available later this year.

  • What exactly is happening in the code mentioned?????

    Hi all,
    I want to know the working of the below code:
    The below code is the WHEN_BUTTON_PRESSED Trigger for the ENTER_QUERY (Push Button):
    DECLARE
      IT_ID1 ITEM;
      IT_ID2 ITEM;
      IT_ID3 ITEM;
    BEGIN
      IT_ID1 := FIND_ITEM('BUTTON.EN_QUERY');
      IT_ID2 := FIND_ITEM('BUTTON.CA_QUERY');
      IT_ID3 := FIND_ITEM('BUTTON.EX_QUERY');
      SET_ITEM_PROPERTY(IT_ID3,ENABLED,PROPERTY_TRUE);
      if :system.mode<>'ENTER-QUERY' THEN
       set_item_property (it_id1,label,'CANCEL QUERY');
       GO_BLOCK(GET_APPLICATION_PROPERTY(CURRENT_FORM_NAME));
       CLEAR_BLOCK(NO_VALIDATE);
       ENTER_QUERY;
      set_item_property (it_id1,label,'ENTER QUERY');
      ELSE
      EXIT_FORM;
      END IF;
    END;
    Can You please tell me what exactly is happening in the above code?
    I want to know the working of it. Help me plz.
    Thank You.
    Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.1.0 - Production
    Oracle Forms 6i.

    what does if :system.mode<>'ENTER-QUERY' THEN mean??
    SYSTEM.MODE indicates whether the form is in Normal, Enter Query, or Fetch Processing mode. The value is always a character string.
    and what does GO_BLOCK(GET_APPLICATION_PROPERTY(CURRENT_FORM_NAME)); do?
    GET_APPLICATION_PROPERTY Returns information about the current Oracle Forms application. CURRENT_FORM_NAME Returns the name of the current form as indicated by the form module Name property.
    GO_BLOCK navigates to an indicated block. If the target block is non-enterable, an error occurs.
    As per the code, After i press the button, the label ENTER QUERY should become CANCEL QUERY, (that is when system is in ENTER_QUERY mode) .
    So when in the system is in ENTER_QUERY mode, it must display CANCEL QUERY, Right??
    in your post, you also said..
    The below code is the WHEN_BUTTON_PRESSED Trigger for the ENTER_QUERY (Push Button):
    We see 3 button in your code. How can we know which one is ENTER_QUERY button. Your code says...
    ENTER_QUERY;
      set_item_property (it_id1,label,'ENTER QUERY');
    So, it says.. BUTTON.EN_QUERY label will be ENTER QUERY
    Then why the code, (if :system.mode<>'ENTER-QUERY' THEN set_item_property (it_id1,label,'CANCEL QUERY');) ?? which says if system mode is not equal to ENTER_QUERY,
    then it tells to display CANCEL QUERY.
    it says.. BUTTON.EN_QUERY label will be CANCEL QUERY

  • What exactly is consists of the "other" category in the capacity bar at the bottom of the sync window?

    What exactly is consists of the "other" category in the capacity bar at the bottom of the sync window?

    Not actually, his statement is to not worry about what is in Other. That is opposite from iOS, if you have 8GB of other you most likely have corrupted files on your iPhone and you need to Restore to eliminate them.

  • What is so "Pro" about the MacBook Pro?

    "Pro" is short for professional and the Apple brand has been synonymous with creative professionals for at least 20 years... I know, asI am one of them. 
    Now, the MAC PRO (tower) is no doubt, a professional grade machine. With 4 hard drives, 2 DVD drives, 4 expansion bays, 5 USB ports and 4 Firewire ports, and a whopping 128GB RAM, I'd say it lives up to the name "Pro". This machine IS the industry standard in film editing, recording studios, graphic design, ect... The one catch, is that it's not portable...
    In come the MAC BOOK PRO. It's lightweight and has excellent battery life which is ideal for portability.
    Now here's what I'm getting at: When you're on the road, at a meeting, or working in the field, you're probably not going to need all of the hardware of the Mac Pro, but only 2 USB ports? That sounds like a joke to me!
    Say you meet someone at a cafe and you decide to transferring some files from your USB drive to his... That's it, you're done for USB ports. You can't even can't grab a charge for your phone, your ipad, plug in a digital camera or whatever because it only has 2 USB ports. And it really annoys me when I see these PC guys with laptops half the price of a MacBook and they're sitting there with all kinds of stuff plugged in. Notebooks like the Inspiron's and ASUS have 5 USB ports... FIVE!!! 
    So I ask you, "what's so pro about the MacBook Pro?" Having to constantly plug and unplug peripherals is quite amateur to me.

    rick268,
    the “Pro” in MacBook Pro was in comparison to the “Pro-less” MacBook. If the two USB ports on a MacBook Pro don’t suffice for your needs, then you can either bring along a powered USB hub, or you can simply not get a MacBook Pro — get one of its competitors instead, which has the number of USB ports which you need.
    I know I can get a USB hub, or better yet, I've been looking into a thunderbolt hub- I just wish I didn't have to sacrifice ports in Apple's conquest to make the thinnest laptop in existance.

    Aww drat! I was going to recommend "AttackA-Hak" which was free from VapourWare Inc.
    a) The likelihood of your Apple device being hacked is millions to one against.
    b) If it was, Apple would be very interested in seeing your device as you would be one of the first.

  • What exactly is "other" in the AppleTV capacity bar

    Hi all,
    If I click on the AppleTV device in itunes, I notice it has the following categories in the capacity bar:
    * video
    * audio
    * photos
    * other
    * free space
    What exactly is included in the "other" category? I assume that podcasts may be in there. The reason I ask is that my "other" category seems to be growing (currently 4.56Gb out of 32.85Gb capacity, which is significant). Is there anything I can do to control the size of this?
    Many thanks in advance.

    Likely the case. You have to remember podcasts are provided by 3rd parties and by there very nature some podcasts are amateur productions or are not necessarily aimed at itunes specifically. There is a chance that some podcasts, whilst playing just fine, don't actually meet the specs from the tv prospective and as such even when completely downloaded don't properly get moved to the appropriate category.
    I've just downloaded the 'Hidden Universe' podcasts, I watched the 'other' category increase in size as more of the podcast downloaded, once complete the 'other' reset to its original value and 'video' increased appropriately.

  • What do you think about the html5?

    I've been seeing developers philosophizing about the future, and I want to know what do you think about the brand new html5?
    mainly because the html5 can take out of the market technology ( flex ).
    thanks for the opinion!!!
    [email protected]

    Yep this is most definitely not just a rumor, I've found plenty of sources talking about this.
    Here's someone's take on HTML5, a non-Adobe perspective, from a Silverlight developer.  I thought this would be interesting to mention.  Not sure I agree 100% with everything said (IE may not be most used browser and I don't believe in DRM), but it's an interesting read anyway:
    Yes, you can do a LOT of stuff with HTML5 + JS that Silverlight is good for. But HTML5 will only reach Candidate Recommendation status in 2012 - if Silverlight keeps the current pace, it will be at V7 by then.
    HTML5 will only get you approximately what Silverlight had at V1.0. A Canvas element, some video playback capabilites, and a Javascript programming model. Can you imagine how further advanced Silverlight 4 is at the moment?
    Actually, scratch that - the video quality and availability of HTML5 is a lot worse than what Silverlight has to offer. There is no DRM, no Smooth Streaming, not even full screen! No GPU acceleration either. Even the codec HTML5 has to support is not standardized! This results in Firefox 3.6 having only Theora decoder, and Youtube experimenting with HTML in H.264 (on the same day FF3.6 launched), only playable in approx. 4-5% of the world's browsers.
    Internet Explorer is still the most widely used browser on the web, and does not have HTML5. Currently, there are more Silverlight capable browsers browsing the web than HTML5 compatible ones. I don't think that in the next 3 years you will be able to create an HTML5 app and hope that at least 50% of the world's population can view it without switching browsers. (and remember: installing a plugin is a lot less hassle than switching to a new browser!)
    HTML5 will not be truly cross-browser standard for quite a long time, if ever. There are too many things that the browser developer can do as they wish - just think about the aforementioned video codec issue. There are too many little differences in each browser's Javascript implementation to make it really portable.
    The developer story: nothing in the HTML + JS world comes close to the awesome Visual Studio and Expression Blend tools. Javascript is cool for small apps, but cannot hold a candle to C# when it comes to serious development. Fighting with browser and OS incompatilities takes up a huge amount of time for any HTML website or web app - with Silverlight you don't have this.
    Just compare what the best HTML / Ajax company in the world (Google) did with maps, and what MS did to see the difference. Go tohttp://maps.google.com/ (watch out - the Streetview part is in Flash, not Ajax), and compare it to http://www.bing.com/maps/explore/. That is the difference I am talking about.
    Of course he means (or should have meant) Flex/Flash rather than just Flash.  As for the GWT and other AJAX fanboys who I guess think browser compatibility problems are going to be a thing of the past (or won't be a drag on corporate bottom lines - haha), it makes you wonder what other wild fantasies they're envisioning for the future.  Next they'll come and tell us XML-based protocols are going to be as fast as AMF...

  • What do you think about the iPhone 4 for my 11 year old daughter

    What do you think about the iPhone 4 for my 11 year old daughter

    It should be a good choice. I recently got the 5C which typically is $99 with supported carriers. Verizon, AT&T, Sprint provide attractive pricing with a two year contract or it you are adding a line to your current service. I have several friends using the 4S, and they have been very pleased with them.

  • What do you think about the new and improved SiriusDecisions Waterfall?

    SiriusDecisions launched their new and improved Demand Waterfall this week at their Summit in Scottsdale, Arizona. For those of you who haven't seen it yet, I have attached the PDF for your viewing pleasure. What do you think? What's strong? What's weak? Do you agree with Tony Jaros that teleprospecting is a required step in the Marketing Qualification process?

    It makes a lot of sense from our perspective.  Our sales organization has always generated the bulk of our leads, so it makes sense to account for them and to build programs to support them.  It was a great conference - my first SiriusDecisions Summit.  I came away both energized and overwhelmed.
    Our Inside Sales team qualifies almost all inquiries via telephone, so it makes sense to me that "teleprospecting" is a required step.  The only exceptions are sales-generated leads, so the waterfall reflects that perfectly.
    What I like most about the new waterfall is that it creates a clear structure for us to focus more on developing lead nurturing and pipeline acceleration programs specifically for teleprospecting- and sales-generated leads.  I'll admit that we've neglected this (simply including those contacts in our marketing-generated lead nurtures).  Furthermore, it reinforces the need to tailor nurtures to the buyer's stage in the buying process.  We tend to move all of our contacts through the same campaign and nurture activities as if they're progressing together, which obviously isn't the case.
    I'd be interested in learning how other Eloqua users are getting data back from their CRM on a contact who has turned into a qualified lead.  How do you find this information out?  Do you then put them through an individual nurture that is focused on accelerating the deal?

  • What burns me up about the Pixi (sprint)-If you can, help me out here

    This is a half rant half 'I hope someone can help me out here with something I'm doing wrong' post, because my experience with this phone makes me want to smash it into a developers face. (Try not to take offence, it's just a thought, I am actually physically stuck with this phone)
    Messaging:
    No time stamps for messaging? With my pending civil court case, it'd be nice to have this rudimentary gem that's been on every phone since 1998. But let's be honest...it's just nice to know when what was said. Awesome that I can save every message for 3 months. Blows that I can't figure out when it was sent.
    Missed Calls:
    OK being that I actually like to think of my pixi as a phone first, then a "computer", I'd love to be able to sift through my missed calls on the red missed call alert bar. Since I'm too much of a, "let's get this done now" guy, I hate loading an app to get to my missed calls off of a little button on an already small interface. If I don't want to load the app, I have to click on the missed call alert bar, make my phone dial the number, end the call immediately, and continue untill I go through all of my missed calls (Yea I've done it before, I hate loading apps that bad). How about if you drag down on the missed call alert bar, it pulls the top one off and reveals the PREVIOUS missed call. (Holy ----! Am I a genius, or am I just someone who actually used this phone for more than 3 minutes?) Hopefully I can just sift through my calls on the messed call's red alert ball, but I've tried it every which way and I don't think I can...Help me out here.
    SMS through missed call icon also only works when it wants to (software issue)
    Airplane Mode: I accidentally put my phone into Airplane mode like twice a week. This blocks all calls and you just don't even know it's on until you notice the plane on the screen. Why is it so easy? Does palm not realize the consumer base that this phone makes it to probably uses an airplane once every year? I mean I've never even been on a plane and I got suckered into this thing, yet I feel like I should be able to have enough frequent flier miles to go around the world 6 times accoroding to how much I accidentally turn on Airplane Mode. Wth? Whose idea was that?
    Facebook syncing: Seriously, who in their right mind wants every single one of heir FB friends on their phones? Certainly not me. Sorry I don't need to talk to all 400 people I've added from school. Best part is, once the syncing deed is done, you can't stop it. That's just brilliant. You spend an hour sycing your phone to FB, just to reset your contacts.
    Ringtones: Text messaging ringtones literally plays for about 10 seconds and stop. Who on gods green earth told you that it'd be Ok to play any ringtone for like 10 seconds? Seriously...? PLEASE tell me I can change this. I can't even get through the intro of a song in 10 seconds. That's just great. May I add my ringer just seems to have shut off today. Why and when, I don't know. But my ringer is on, turned up, and I'm just getting text messages and calls as I type this with no sounds. lol Seriously. I'm not even kidding. I don't know how to make the alert sound. That's absurd. lol Like really I'm laughing at how pitiful it is that this is what my phone does so I'll just type another lol to further express how much of a joke this phone is to me. lol
    Contact Reminder: Now I'm not sure what I'm doing. But pretty often, when trying to hurriedly dial a number, I accidentally hit contact reminder, load a new app. Meanwhile I have to get rid of the app and get to my phone. Now here's the kicker...I did it "hurriedly"(yea I make up words when I need to) which means I'm in a rush. Thx for not helping whatever situation I'd be in/have been in, Palm...You're supposed to work with me, not against me. :\
    Calendar: Awesome app. I actually bought this phone for its uses here. But I'm not sure if it's just me, or the phone, but I can't even have this thing remind me to take out the trash every WEDNESDAY. From what I can tell, I can only do reoccuring reminders by date, and not by day. Seriously? If I'm not missing something here and that is the case, you've completely failed your name Palm. Just saying, I mean jeez...
    Youtube: Now really. You almost outdid yourself with the youtube app. You could have made me forget of all of this phones shortcomings had you not just screwed up here too. Now I don't know who you have agreements with, but since I can't actually get the same vids I'd normally get on the computer (for example, music videos) to come up in my search, you've essentially turned youtube, "you"sless. Now that actually takes more effort in screwing up than not. This thing right here just makes me think you're trying to get me mad.
    Small keys:Won't even touch on that subject, I should have noticed from the get go. I knew it, thought I'd get used to it, but no. They are just too small and that's that. Not even blaming palm for this one.
    Palm taught me 2 things with this phone.
    1: Never buy from palm again, we just don't seem to agree on what a phone should do. I had great expectations in the Palm name, only to find out that I'm going to be enraged by the phone daily.
    2olidification in the notion that "if it's too good to be true, it probably is." Because that's exactly what I got out of the experience with this phone.
    So unless someone can set my problems straight, I'm going to be looking foward to my next upgrade like it's the last day of school for a 12 year old. At least life won't continue speeding by as long as I have this thing. I guess that's one bonus. :\
    The worst part is this is all that I can think of sitting here. I can probably edit this throughout any given day to make it into a small book. Which I would try to publish if I'm not flat out wrong about at least half of these "problems". Because if so...this phone should have never hit the market. No offense. Like I said, I actually have to use this phone. Palm just gets more money out of it.
    Thx if you read, and thx if you help me out. I hope someone tells me what I'm doing wrong and makes me look like a complete idiot. This is your chance, defend palm!
    Post relates to: Pixi p120eww (Sprint)

    Hi ChrisBell,
    my Pixi shows me the missed calls in a list of its own? I don't have many, so maybe I'm missing something. But I agree with your half-ranting to some degree. As a long-time Palm-user (my last phone was a Treo 680, terrible form factor, good UI), I am really disappointed with the standard software on this phone. Memos and Tasks, which AFAIK were there and useful even on the first Newton's, have regressed beyond the point of usefulness now (solution: Toodledo and Done!, at least for now).
    But ChrisBell: if you feel up for it, you could start tinkering. Many people love these phones so much they have started developing patches to solve the obvious problems skimmed over by developers. Try looking up "webosquickinstall" and "preware", and you will find over 300 patches and a lot of free software to help you out. I am not a computer wizard myself, but I am not scared of them either, and I have been able to make good use of all these extras made available by the community.
    just a thought, might help you out on a few of your half-rants

  • What's so good about the Venture?

    Can someone help me to understand this?  Lately around here I've been hearing a lot of talk about people applying for or wanting the Venture.  I'm just now starting to do my research and it's going to take me several days to get through all the recent threads.  I'm going to read all of them but I may get antsy and apply for something before then. I understand that your venture miles can be redeemed for statement credits on travel.  You get 2x miles on all purchases.  But wouldn't 2% from Citi DC or Fidelity Amex be the same thing but way better?  Even if you travel all the time, having the option to spend your points elsewhere can't be a bad thing right?  Plus the Venture has an AF.   So from where I'm sitting, the Venture looks way worse than Citi DC or Fido Amex even if you travel.  What am I missing here?
    The signup bonus makes it worth the triple pull just barely, so I may apply if I can think of a good reason.  Convince me to apply for this card!  I don't care about a high limit on a card that won't be my main spender and has a high APR... I have 0% util so padding limits isn't useful to me.  Is that the only reason people are going nuts over this card?

I have 0% util so padding limits isn't useful to me.  Is that the only reason people are going nuts over this card? Historically this forum goes all starry-eyed when creditors start handing out outsized limits. To be brutally honest, my Venture app - I don't care about the bonus, I do care about the limit not on that card, but when I go apply for a couple of cards I do care about (non-trivial lines on balance carrying cards just in case I need them to float in times of financial stress rather than just filing a BK and being done with it, even 3 months either way is enough time for me to get something to start paying down my debt). Beyond that don't need it, sitting on a CSP pre-approval which will be my long-term travel card, and I have a Fidelity Amex already though I wouldn't mind a CLI on that someday and for acceptance and online transaction fee reasons I'd rather have a Citi DC, but end of the day we've seen far too often that current limits beget future limits, and my limits are incredibly low compared to most people on this forum but now it's time to do something about that as I get close to credit card portfolio completion.  I don't need 200K limits, I do need more than the 34K I'm on now and I do need lower APR's than what I have access to now for financial defense reasons. Venture is part of the two step process to that for me, nothing more.My thought pattern exactly.
