Of course, I'll be writing about it! My situation is different from most tech reviewers, though. Most product reviews are intended to report facts; they very scientific, clinical in their approaches, explaining a device's specifications and so on. That's fine, but it's been done already for the N900. I'm going to tell you how it relates to my life. ]]> http://blog.brianpagan.net/2010/two-weeks-with-maemo-part-i-nokia-n900-review/feed/ 2 http://blog.brianpagan.net/2010/our-duty-of-vision-according-to-philippe-starck/ http://blog.brianpagan.net/2010/our-duty-of-vision-according-to-philippe-starck/#comments Tue, 01 Jun 2010 06:52:56 +0000 Brian http://blog.brianpagan.net/?p=195 Click here to see the talk.
