Where is the modern equivalent of E70!?

So what if it was brick-sized and just as heavy!
So what if it didn't sell that well then!
So what if anything, I still f***ing love this phone!
I love the style and I love the button arrangements, but most importantly, I LOVE the keyboard placement! (left and right of the screen for both thumbs is WIN!)
I'm still using one, bought it the day it came out, now I need a new one. The poor fella is missing 4 buttons .
Bring it back or I buy an Iphone! (very serious!)

I am with you. Loved the 6820 and I was one of the first to upgrade to the E70. I was on a business trip and had forgotten my iPhone charger so when I ran out of juice, I configured my old E70 with Mail4exchange. Some interesting observations:
+ There are still some good things about old Nokia E70. Great signal strength, much better voice quality than the iPhone, and let's not forget it a full keyboard with no emulated keys. Great.
+ The Mail4exchange client is not bad and has more functionality that the iPhone (3GS/iOS4) client. You can sort emails, you can save and forward any attachments types easily. Still Great.
+ You can install new applications like Google Maps with features not supported by the iPhone (latitude, traffic, layers, etc.)
However, there are a number of extremely frustrating things. Navigating the menus is very slow and nested 5x without reason. By the way, it is not a hardware problem, as when you move left/right it is very fast - it is just very bad coding.  The menu options are engineering driven, not customer driven. Certain shortcuts are missing, there is no dictionary, the .doc viewers are not update to .docx, switching between languages is a pain. Anyway, the list can go very long, that is not the point.
The point that Nokia is missing is that they should not crank out a zillion hardware models which are difficult to place in their product line but all have the same broken software. My suggestion would be to focus on a few proven hardware types and then continue to update and refine the software.  It is very frustrating because all the problems above could be solved with a little bit of software coding. Then, and only then would people come back to being loyal to Nokia... and they will purchase new hardware models if Nokia believes that hardware drives profits.
The way it is, no one cares about the hardware variety anymore, the innovation is on the software front. I share your pain that we love the E70 and if Nokia had come up with new software updates every 12 months, then we would naturally upgrade the hardware after 1-2 years (as it happens with the iPhone, you cannot stay forever on a 220 MHz processor, old bluetooth, etc.)
So what is the point of my post? I agree Nokia should bring back the E70 with updated software. Would they do it? Now! This will not change their profits, they are hurting bad and I hope they go under soon or later. They just do not get their customer. So I get the charger and go back to the iPhone. I would not even look at the ^3 ^4 phones. I do not believe this company has the guts to compete anymore... it has been like this since the 2005.

  • Where is the mod_jk2.dll?

    hello
    I'm trying to install jk2 connector.
    My problem is that in the .zip distribution on Jakarta site, I can't find the mod_jk2.dll that must be given to httpd.conf in Apache.
    Instead of it, I find a mod_jk2.so, which is the Unix/Linux equivalent.
    I tried to use anyway the .so file, but without success (I also tryed to rename it to .dll).
    Please if anyone knows where to get this mod_jk2.dll tell me.
    Or I must compile this file by myself.
    Thanks.

    Use the mod_jk2.so and put it in the apache2/modules folder.
    In the httpd.conf add the line : LoadModule jk2_module modules/mod_jk2.so
    right where all the other modules are specified.
    This works for me with Apache 2 and Tomcat 5.
    Don't forget to fix up a workers2.properties file (to be put in Apache2/conf folder)

  • How to Get the numeric equivalent of Year and Month with this format....

    Hi Experts!
    I just would like to know how to get the numeric equivalent of the Year and Month if the given format is like this....
       31-May-07
    where:
    31 is the Day
    May is the Month
    07 is the Year
    Is there a function in ABAP to do this? I wouldn't mind hardcoding for the Month, but what I'm after is the year.... they only gave me 2 digits for the year... and I would like to extract 4 digits from it... do ABAP still recognize it as '1907'? I think not...
    Please help me on this experts and Thank you in Advance!!!
    More Power!

    Hi Jayson,
    You can require 2007 or 2017 or 2027..
    or 1937 . or 1947 .. so on,
    so just put a logic based on this. Just hard code as
    lets say value is 31-May-07 (9 char field)
    Case field+7(1).
    WHEn 0.
    concatenate '200' field+8(1) into year.
    WHEN 1.
    WHEN 2.
    WHEN 3.
    jsut code like this and check the syntaxes.
    Reward points if useful.

  • ITunes: Where is the logic?

    Some files (two folders or equivalent of two "CDs") in my “iTunes U” folder in iTunes are syncing to my iPod both in “iTunes U” as well as “music” in my iPod. But the two “albums” are merged as if one long album (actually, they are related, but didn't expect them to "merge" on my iPod. But more annoying is that in “music” it is duplicated three times.
    Another “album” which I recently from iTunes store to “iTunes U” in iTunes is actually video. I sync it from “iTunes U” but when it reaches my iPod it is not under “iTunes U”, but instead it is under “videos”.
    Where is the logic?
    Also, please can anyone tell me how I can play files from an external drive or CD, or from a folder OTHER than the iTunes folder without actually importing them into the iTunes folder?
    thanks

    Oh, and whereas in iTunes the list on the top left is:
    Music
    Movies
    TV shows
    Podcasts
    iTunes U
    Books
    Radio
    when iTunes U reaches my iPod it can only be found under "playlists"
    Where is the logic?

  • Where's the iPhone4s in THAILAND had essembled?

    As a result of ip4s in Thailand has released in 20,900 THB. I want to know where's the whole had been produced or imported from?
    Furthermore, does the price is included VAT or not? Thank You.

    I regularly export scaled down JPEG's for uploading to the web, and all my masters are 10 MP Nikon D80 RAW files with various adjustments. I batch apply exposure recovery, enhanced saturation, definition, and vibrancy, and sharpening to all photos, regardless of any other adjustments. I try to use shadows/highlights sparingly, since I know that can double the export time, but this isn't the root of the question.
    Most of what you're asking for is right there. The values of each particular adjustment don't change the underlying issue, that something other than the CPU is the limiting factor. I timed an export of 20 images with the above settings (no shadows/highlights) and it averaged 2.7 seconds per image for a 1024x1024 max JPEG. Full size took 3.1 seconds, and the results for 8-bit TIFF's were the same as the equivalent pixel size as in JPEG. Add highlight/shadow and levels adjustments, and the times go up to 5.6 seconds for the 1024x1024 and 5.9 seconds for full size.
    That doesn't sound like a lot of time, but most events I shoot end up having around 500 pictures to upload, which translates to 23-47 minutes of chugging, depending on the number of images that use highlight/shadows. While it's theoretically possible to keep working while exporting, Aperture just gets too unresponsive to make it worthwhile.
    All that said, I don't really want speculation. I want to hear examples of hardware upgrades or other system changes that caused a corresponding improvement in Aperture performance. There's got to be some folks out there who added more RAM and then noticed "hey look, now all my cores are maxed out". Or perhaps someone did that and it had no effect, but changing video cards affected it. Or maybe there's something else I haven't thought of, but I can't imagine I'm the only one who's wondered "if Aperture can use all 2/4/8 cores, why can't it max them out too?"

  • Where are the RAW adjustment settings kept?

    I have imported my pictures (a complete folder) into Lightroom, made all the adjustments, exported the jpegs... great! Now I want to backup my folder and the RAW adjustment settings I have made.
    But where are all the adjustment settings kept, and can I backup those settings for later retrieval with my original RAW files?
    Thanks for all your advice.

    &gt; That's the point, my folders have no .xmp files any where! I did a search on my only drive c: and there is no .xmp files at all. But I can assure you that all my 400 or so RAW files retained all the adjustments in Lightroom. What's going on?
    <br />
    <br />Your adjusted files may be residing elsewhere. So, select one RAW image on which you are sure you've edited, and then reveal it in the Finder or the Windows equivalent. Look around there; there certainly should be .xmp files if you've run Export xmp on that folder.
    <br />
    <br />Another neat way, for me, anyway, is to Convert all the edited RAW files to DNG; then they'll contain the edits within the file, as currently to JPEGs, TIFFs, and PSD files.

  • Where's the Advanced|Document Processing|Batch Processing menu gone in Acrobat 11?

    I have Acrobat 8.3.1 Professional at work, we're migrating to new machines (Win7) with Acrobat 11 Standard.
     I've run into a problem:  In 11 Standard, where is the equivalent to the Advanced|Document Processing|Batch Processing menu command from Acrobat 8 Pro??
    I have 2 sequences I need to be able to run for docment filing with Court.
    Both sequences focus on a specific folder where I put (sometimes quite large) batches of documents converted from Word to PDF.
    The 1st sequence goes through however many files are in the target folder.  For each file, it turns on the thumbnails, and turns off the menu bar.
    I then do some tinkering en mass with them in Acrobat.
    Then I run the 2nd sequence, which turns off the thumbnails, and turns the menu bar back on - this is a requirement from Court.
    I just started tinkering with Acrobat 11 on my new machine, and the menus seem quite different!
    Currently, as each sequence runs, I have to sit there clicking "OK" for each and every file, which is tedious at best!  I'd love to find something that'll give me the same functionality, with Acrobat doing all the grunt work!

    Ugh.  I kinda thought that someone might say this.
    Ironically, the same situation arose a couple years ago when we got the machines we're migrating *from* - The Powers That Be thought that 8 Standard would work, and I quickly educated them that "nope, yer gonna hafta spring for me a copy of Pro!"
    So, it looks like "here we go again!"
    Thanks anyway!
    Now I get to cause our purchasing folks NEW grief!  I've told them repeatedly that they should REALLY involve me in these purchases, so I can do the pre-purchase research, and save everyone a lot of bother.

  • I want to use an old Daqcard 1200 with Labview 8.5. Where is the driver?

    I'm using Labview 8.5. I have an old Daqcard 1200 and there doesn't seem to be a driver for it. I downloaded an older version of NI-DAQ that claimed to have support for that card, but when I tried to install it wanted me to uninstall my newer version. Is there a way to use this card without going back to an ancient version of NI-DAQ?

    Unless there is some specific technical problem with interfacing to the old equipment, I don't think it is unreasonable at all to expect them to include drivers for legacy equipment. It would cost them very little to throw a few extra drivers into a package that encompasses their whole product line anyway, other than the missed opportunity costs associated with not selling new equipment in a few rare cases (which is probably what this is really about) .
    NI will probably explain better than i do. in general, they changed the way the DAQ driver operates, introducing also DAQmx. this is incompatible with the old way of functionning. for you, it forces you to choose the driver version to use.
    But anyway, it's not worth it for me to set up a machine just to run this thing. I'm just going to trash it. Thanks for the help.
    why dont you sell it over ebay? there are quite a bit that would love using it, for cheap enough. for example, this was one of the latest cards exhibiting 3 counters, operating differently than the modern version. it has its usefullness...Also, if this is the only one card installed in the computer, you wont miss anything with the new drivers
    ... And here's where I keep assorted lengths of wires...

  • Where does the processing take place when using a remote front panel?

    Hi,
    I am considering upgrading my LabView software from 6i to 6.1 for the new "two click" remote front panel feature. I have already seen a demo of this feature but have just a few questions before I get the upgrade:
    My setup consists of several pieces of equipment connected to Labview via GPIB, to aid in the evaluation of a new microchip.
    1. I wish to grant control of the setup to anyone with a web browser, Is the remote monitoring feature compatible with both Netscape and IE?
    2. The VI which controls the setup is currently located on the PC beside my setup. When I embed a VI in a remote front panel, where does the processing take place, is the local VI still controlling the setup? and
    the remote panel just sending and receiving data from the local VI.
    Thanks, Troy

    The computer which we refer to as the server, the one with the GPIB card
    in your case, will execute as it does now. In fact, its window will
    even be open. The remote client computer, the one with the web browser
    will be running the runtime engine and processing user events, value
    change and property/method events from the server. So in reality, both
    computers will be sharing the load a bit. This allows for very small
    packets to be sent between the computers. It is in fact quite similar
    to publishing the data between the computers using datasocket.
    One thing to keep in mind. Standard LV includes a license for one
    connection. If you want to allow for multiple web browsers to view at
    the same time, additional licenses are available. Also, only one user,
    remote or server may be in control of the panel at a time. That means
    that if you want to be able to operate the panel, changing kn
    obs or
    flipping switches, the others will become viewers only until you give up
    control. Hopefully this isn't a surprise, but I thought you might want
    to hear about it now.

  • N97 - Where is the Services Integration and Proper...

    Well have had the N97 for a good couple of months now, and I am surprised at the lack of intuitiveness within the phone out of the box. It all points to poor implementation of the services if this is the case.Where is the ability to click on a contact and view is twitter, MySpace, MSN or a Facebook status at a glance from a contact?  I have completed the MSN and facebook contact details in the contact application, but when I click on these details within contacts the N97 does absolutely nothing......what’s the point? 
    In this modern day and age of integrated services software within mobile phones, are these N97 contact details for information only whilst other lesser makes of phones contacts can take you directly to a conversation, widget or service straight from this kind of contact detail. If this is all the functionality that N97 has then we are far behind the rest, unless of course I'm missing something. 
    It all points to poor implementation of the services within the N97 if this is the case.
    If the N97 and the N97mini remain like this then they seem to be real failed experiments in my opinion.
