Jakarta – shaped a bit bloated with jet-black color, indicating the confidence to enter the market of this country. His first debut in Indonesia seemed to be heavy. The reason he had to deal with consumer tastes of Indonesia, which now dininabobokan BlackBerry, iPhone and Android. Can he?

The youngest member of the family Nokia-N series is called the Nokia N900. For some, the arrival in Indonesia has been waiting for. But for the user’s handset fanatic ‘neighbors’, his arrival had underestimated.

Bear this versatile product, would be hard to grab consumers’ tastes of Indonesia. With the price above Rp. 5 million and features as no better than ‘neighbors’, he would fail in seizing the Indonesian consumer affection.

Hence he will be left alone in the failure of his career debut, looked at other products with a full sense of jealousy. That there are very few people would pick it up. They’ll make a small group of lovers of the Nokia N900 in the forums, whose numbers have no meaning than the market share of Nokia itself.

Hands-On First Nokia N900

Sorry, a few paragraphs above illustration may terdegar ‘lebai’. But that picture is going to happen, if the Nokia N900 fails in his career debut in Indonesia. Actually, the first impression of this product, when I first got detikINET do unboxing and hands-on handset this fat.

First remove these products from boxnya, immediately thought of the corpulence detikINET HTC Magic with the extended battery. With dimensions of 110.9 x 59.8 x 18mm and weight of 181 grams, it was clear he was not going to win the contest bodied sexy smart phone (if any).

Slide QWERTY type keypad brings sailing Touch, Nokia N900 honestly looks classy and expensive. Moreover, 3.5 inchinya screen phones that dominate the surface.

This is actually the successor to the N97 internet-tablet, berbonus the ability of a cell phone. DetikINET computer-cellular calls.

Larger size should be present with greater stability. Nokia N900 feels very comfortable in the palm of the hand. There’s no slippery feeling when holding it. Slide the slide, then we will see the size QWERTY keypad quite small. Frankly large radius users, would be difficult to type on this keypad.

If compared to a mini N97, N900 Keypad smaller. At a mini N97, there is distance between the keypad keys. While the N900, the distance between the almost non-existent.

Close the slide, then the N900 was dominated stretch of 3.5-inch display, with no physical buttons like the home, call, menu, or cancel that usually exist on a Nokia mobile phone. This ergonomic design deserves thumbs up.

The upper part of this mobile phone has 3 buttons. As usual there is the volume button in the left corner. Then the power button is located in the middle, and the camera shutter button on top right. Slightly disguised, N900 still has an infrared sensor. Yes, infrared! looks like we’ve rarely met these tools in recent years.

Rotating to the right side, we’ll see a panel lock the phone. Simply slide the N900 is in the locked position. Right beside it there are 3.5-inch audio ports and stylus holder.

Maybe a little weird, why is there a stylus here. Apparently after dijajal also important. For some large radius, the stylus is needed when you are browsing.

A pair of speakers adorn the right side and left body N900. Stereo and very clear voice to make detikINET captivated (wait for further discussion on the performance). And then there was a mini-USB port with power. Consequently N900, can still charge when dicolok to PC / laptop, whenever and wherever.
