http://forums.se-nse.net/index.php?showtopic=44079
no more shall we live in fear of this rumored device!
she's real! and her UI looks amazing... thank you Le0n_Pro

p.s. he's added a second picture..
c'mon discuss!... ready.... GO!

Nice find .
Well, it's ok for an Android device. I don't like the looks though, no keyboard, no d-pad.... but if I had the extra cash, I wouldn't mind playing with it for a couple of months.
Maybe you should post the pics in the OP?

fail to register at se-nse.net, anyone can share at this topic?

Yea, please post the pics, I'm not about to make an account so that i can see the pics on the other forum.

im sure the typing you put into that post whining about it, you could have registered and been looking at them, imo... but.. i'm sure someone will have them up at some point

Oh, c'mon! Killerskincanoe remember that time you beat me to posting the link on the X2 thread? You did it again! I came to post less than 10 mins after the Engadget article, but still you did it before me!
I promise you that when the first mention of the X4 comes out I'll be impossibly vigilant! I will not sleep until I beat you to it! 24/7 without sleep if I need to! Only refreshing Engadget and peeing in a bottle near the PC from now on for me...

have you ever skinned an ENTIRE operating system of any kind before... ?
it's called DEVELOPMENT for a reason..

Yup. That's just a testing unit with a random Android build, I guess.

this device is rumored to be release on January next year, which is similar to X2
when i see there is a complete UI on X2, and on the other side X3 is still just a fundamental system at dev kit level, i feel a little bit upset...
ok, my bad, may be i expect too much...

the camera still sucks.. how can X2,X3 camera never surpass my old k850.... why wouldnt it got XENON flash

Ha! You can have all those inferior sites. I'm lurking in Engadget although my thumb is sore from the refreshing already...

the 3D pic were in the first thread already. I so like the phone. But it's true, they have to put an UI. I like HTC Sense, so if there is no proper UI I rather hav Hero200.
How is it with Android phones? Could I, f.e., flash a HTC Rom (android) on a SE Android device?

Anyone interested in TAThome?

Here you can join the early access for almost any android phone and give feed back.
This is TAThome for android: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bOGmnnGpoqg
And here is the website: http://www.tat.se/
Thank you for your time
P.S i DO NOT work at TAT or have any relations with TAT all right go to TAT engineers and designers.

It looks amazing but I remember a similar demonstration for a 3D TAT interface on the N95 way back when, and nothing ever came of it. Is this getting a definite release?

Seems really interesting...
I would like to try it

I'm not 100% sure about this but i think it will be released because there is a sign up for getting early access, So the only thing to do right now is sign up and hope for the best
P.S i will give feed back and share videos here if i ever get the early access

Yeah, well I've signed up. Let's hope something comes of this

Signed up, too.
I think this is not part of the "Nexus One Development"

Lol, I hadn't even noticed that we were in that section. I assumed it was themes and apps! Probably should be

No, other than the weather widget (which actually does a good job looking natural and making good use of space) I think that it's pretty much a bust. Unnecessary gestures and poor layout/viewing angles, this feely like a "me too" attempt at (ab)use of opengl.

Moved to general......

No thanks.
Looks cool but its just too much eye candy to me.

How do I sign up for early access? I don't see a link on their site.
Thanks

press 'take the tour', you'll see the email notify thingy on the next page
you didn't look around there too awful hard, didja ?

if only there was a way for people to use their software's because I'm sure if they release it to the public there will be a lot of people willing to make GUI's even better then that.

If you were thinking anout getting N1.. DO IT!

I just switched from touch pro 2 and let me tell you... There is no comparison. I had TP2 for a year and almost everytime I had to do something fast, look something up or do somehing more complicated than calling - it would fail me. It led to a constant feeling of doubt and being unsure if it will just freeze when I need it the most.
N1 is freaking fast. Everything on it JUST WORKS. There is no guessing, like on TP2 - "omg I hope this launches.. I hope I don't have to soft reset.." - everything is integrated, every transition happens in a snap, every task you throw at it is handled immediatly and with style. It's a reliable life partner.
If you are undecided like I was a week ago about switching to N1, do it - you'll wish u've done it sooner.
Android FTW.

It looks almost black & blue already.

Its far better than the TP2 but it reboots by itself alot. I don't know why. I do understand you, coming form that phone also. But its not perfect yet.

My n1 never random reboots.....Ever since JIT got throw out the window, no reboots....I had almost 12 days uptime once....

Scratch that. I found what it means. How do you get rid of it? I've read its built in.

THANK YOU, OP!
Yes, I was pretty undecided up until now. I have a SE X1 and really, I know what you're talking about when you mention "doubt". I just hate the thing and WM makes it a nightmare. When I got my X1 I was thinking of keeping the phone for a long time, I wasn't expecting a $900 phone to turn out to be complete crap both hardware wise (flimsy, crappy keyboard, crappy paint, etc.) and software wise (WM!!!). Hopefully, I can use the N1 for a longer time with the updates and all...
I guess I'll be getting it now for sure, the only thing left to decide is whether or not it's worth it to wait the extra time to have it engraved...ha!

Actually I ordered mine engraved and it shipped the same day. Suppose to be delivered today .
You may also want to check this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=654493

I also came from a TP2 and I don't miss it or windows mobile at all. The laggy feel to if it was on for a day with no soft reset. Glad to see I wasn't the only one who made the switch.

And to fill that final need.......
go and download dildroid just google it. Now your phone can handle anything, no really, I mean anything!

Glad it helped =)
Dude, be VERY careful about the engraving.
Read the warranty policy - if you engrave it, it becomes a non-refundable phone that can only be sent in for repairs, if needed. Also, think if you'll want to sell it in a year or two.. nobody wants your "My name is John and I have a 12" tool" engraving.
Not that it's a bad service, just make sure you consider that.

Lauged so hard I cried hahaha awesome!
Nah I was thinking something like:
Andrei + Kat
2009.07.15
Or something that would make the "wife" happy. I have to be careful what I engrave otherwise I'll get the cold treatment XD.
Oh well

Hehe. My name is Andrei as well actually =)
I'm thinking that if I do want some "engraving" on it, I could get away with a transparent acid-sticker of a sort.. at least that I can remove and sell/return if need arises.
Although only death can separate me form my N1 at this point.

If Adobe would hurry and release the fully gpu accelerated flash player for this phone, I'd give it a 10 out of 10.
Seriously! The ipad / iphone guys are crying so hard about wanting html 5 everywhere because they're not allowed to have flash.. I worry that Adobe's missed the boat on this one.
Not a single developer leaking the gpu flash 10 player for android either..

Swype might already be obsolete

Have you seen BlindType? I think I need it!!!

Watch the whole video. It will blow your mind.

WANT!!!!!!!!!

wow that is crazy... not sure what I think of it so far, the keyboard thing is interesting and I'd love to play with it.
got to say the keyboard that I really like is skiftkey it monitors how you type and predicts your next word. I keep switching between swype that swiftkey.

Ahh, no thanks. It's always good to have options and competition, but I could never use that keyboard.

So far ShapeWriter seems fastest for me. I wish it had better prediction though.

Wow, how did they do that, lmao.

not bad. I still like swype better =)

The phrase invisible keyboard sounds really cool until you take a second and realize how silly it actually is. Additionally what if I meant to write tao and it thinks I must surely have meant tap or rap or yap, or maybe I meant tso as in the general's chicken or tsp like the measure. As far as I can tell this new system is nothing more than unmitigated sillyness.
Magicked from my Vibrant by tube traversing XDA elves.

this looks like a good concept but i dont think id like it for real world use for same reasons as posted above. I still love swipe not sure id want to change

This has alot of potential, ill give it a try when its released.

Looks amazing, but also looks gimmicky. I have gotten a but too used to swype to try another"hunt and peck" keyboard.

Hmm. Now we don't have to even spell words correctly? I can't see how this a good thing in the long run unless it's for people with conditions affecting their motor skills. It just reinforces laziness.

I could see it being good in the way of texting by muscle memory. I think it would keep the ppl who feel they NEED to text while driving more focused on the road.

Looks like Google liked BlindType too. They liked it so much they bought the company:

Haha I was just about to point this out. Looks like we might be seeing and hearing more about this now. I saw that demo video a while ago and totally forgot about it till today. Seems cool but I do agree it is a bit "gimmicky"

SwiftKey implements this right now, probably in a more efficient manner.

Blind type has be bought by Google I bet it is going to take a while before we see it. Google will leverage this for all they can.......... but IT IS Awesome !!

Samsung Note in the Super bowl!

Surprised nobody has commented on this -
Samsung is going to have a NINETY second spot during the superbowl!
A normal 30 second spot costs around 2-3 million bucks, and samsung is buying three of them! Whoa
The commercial is being directed by the Farrely brothers (There's something about mary, etc)

Neat stuff - Glad to see Samsung going full steam ahead with this fantastic device.

I LOVE my Note but sorry, it looks hilarious holding it to your ear, my wife refers to it as my 'pizza box' Fortunately I use a headset most of the time anyway...
Can't wait to see what Bobby Farrelly cooks up for a tv commercial!
Now that I think about it, considering Something About Mary, Irene, Dumb & Dumber, yeah, he probably *will* have someone holding it to their ear to talk...

That's odd... people normally don't even notice how big the phone is when I'm talking on it... (possibly cos it's mostly hidden by my hands ).
People do, however, notice its size if I'm using it for other stuff like messaging or browsing...
OT: I'm really happy Samsung has been pushing this phone into the mainstream so much. It's an awesome device. And it'll be even greater with all the development support that comes from being a mainstream success.

Not a big fan of the commercial to be honest.
They sure didn't say much for a 90 second spot.
But I guess the whole point is to get people talking about the note, and then the Note will take it from there.

Is it this one?

Yah I was really looking forward to it too, but was a bit disappointed. Not even a mention of the 5.3in screen, just the stylus. The ad missed the mark IMO.

Dont let a Samsung employee hear you calling it a stylus

I hope they do something outrageous about it like it having a dual personality, a phone and a tablet, and it falls in love with an iPhone and follow it across the country. Oh wait, they already did that.
EDIT: ARRGH, my post is too late.

GIANTS won! Yeaaaaaa

Thought it was great! Really makes people think about a bigger better option, the Note. No hard sell just fun and entertainment, better than the half time show. The next three ads will do the rest. Haven't met anyone yet that didn't want my Note.
I won't say the Giants won as much as they just got lucky.

Waste of 9 million bucks. Terrible Imo
From the giant: Galaxy Note

why what do employees refer to it as?

Wish the ad showed some of the features of note, rather than people screaming around

Was really hoping for a much better spot outta Samsung on this one. Thought their previous commercials were great. Although i will say, i had 3 friends text me saying they saw a commercial for my phone.

^^^ This. If I didn't know what the ad was for (and I hadn't been following the Note for months now) I would think it was just another Android handset with that pointy stylus thing that Steve Jobs said was bad. Not a single thing special about it. Didn't feel like 90 seconds; seemed like it was over and I was still waiting for some tangible "here's why this thing is awesome" moment(s). Oh well. As the Note has done elsewhere in the world, I'm sure it'll sell itself on the merits as people start using them.

The add was lame. I was sold on the specs alone before the thing was ever announced (just rumored) ... Of course we have to remember, most people aren't nerds like us...
The downside to it's success is that, unlike the Dell Streak I'm writing this on, I wont be the only person I know who has one! When I whip out the Streak I always realize that no one has ever seen a phone like this. That is about to end...
The upside is of course that the development from this community, and the updates from Samsung should be great.
