This is amazing. 300 developers have just been given a Nokia N900 (pre-final production version) for a 6 months loan. I’ve never seen so many happy kids!
I recorded my unboxing for fun and it’s embedded below but the most important announcement is that I’ll be running another live session on Monday. Hopefully JKK will join and we can talk about the N900 and it’s competitors.
Stay tuned for final information about the live session.

That’s what i call unboxing!!!
..and sure I will join.. I have something new here too..
October 9th, 2009 at 2:16 pm
what new and shiny toy to perform an autopsy on did you get jkk?
October 9th, 2009 at 2:29 pm
Unfortunately, it’s not the battery used in the N810 or E90. Instead it’s a BL-5J. 1350MA, I believe.
October 9th, 2009 at 2:30 pm
That should be a small m, as in 1350mA.

@chansearrignton http://tinyurl.com/yjfezrz 1500mah battery? can u confirm this?
October 9th, 2009 at 4:14 pm
If I had been quicker I would have set up a syncronised unboxing with 10-20 of the people here. Now THAT would have been an unboxing!
October 9th, 2009 at 5:06 pm
Haha, that’s neat. I wonder when those seeds will bear fruit!
The N900 needs a busy developer pool to succeed.

developers?
so, what are you developing, steve?
let me call it influencing the press/
media to spread “good” news on that device!
marketing, that’s all!
btw. who wants to carry that brick around in their pocket?
October 10th, 2009 at 12:37 pm
You have to be kidding! Everyone who went there got a phone?
