The Nokia N900 is a “smart” smartphone – a small, mobile computer with a powerful processor, large internal storage, and easy to use interface. It is not based on a cellphone, but rather an internet tablet. The N900 appeals to multitaskers who wish to have many applications windows open while browsing the internet, just like on their desktop computer.

The N900 runs on a powerful ARM Cortex-A8 processor, offers up to 1GB of application memory and OpenGL ES 2.0 graphics acceleration for higher resolution video. The OS of the N900 is the Linux-based Maemo platform. Navigation is done mostly using the 3.5-inch resistive touchscreen and the slide-out QWERTY keyboard.

There are many applications available for the platform. Some applications are original software written specifically for Maemo, while other applications are straight ports of existing Linux programs. The device easily delivers a PC-like experience on a hand-held sized device.

This sleek touch screen phone is loaded with the latest features, and they are all easily accessible from the 3.2 inch display through the touch screen and full-touch QWERTY keyboard.

This 3G-enabled phone is compatible with AT&T Navigator GPS turn-by-turn directions, AT&T Mobile Music, Video Share service, and Mobile TV. The AT&T 3G network makes it possible to enjoy a variety of wireless multimedia services, and it gives you the advantage of offering simultaneous voice and data services.

The Eternity offers a full range of email, text, and multimedia messaging options. The phone has an internal 200 MB memory that is shared between the address book, MP3 player, and camera, and it’s expandable via optional MicroSD memory cards. The 3.2 megapixel camera can shoot photos up 3x zoom.
