Mike at Nokia Conversations recently got the N97 and he reckons that the phone met all his expectations. He is basically saying that the phone has transformed him into “Mr Proactive”. This follows after the question he posed in December 2008 whether the N97 will change him or not. He was basically referring to this question regarding “anticipation vs. reality” when it comes to new phones.
He argues that “my mobile behaviour is very different to that of how I used my N95 8GB or E71 which I’d been using only for a couple of months before making the switch to the new N97”. He reckons that the biggest changes he has underwent is his approach to messaging, that he is now doing tons amount of SMS, MMS, Email and Twittering. The most significant is that he is now composing “full-blown emails proactively” (I think we can now see where the name “Mr Proactive” comes from
. He attributes this change to “…the combo of killer keyboard, large screen, fast set-up (of email)…”.
In conclusion, he makes mention of the fact that he is now “…using all of my favourite apps far more than before – I’m Twittering more regularly via Gravity, using Maps more casually and in more frequent proactive communication with my four most contacted friends sat in my custom Contact Bar”. He argues that the fantastic homescreen, the widgets and touchscreen “…transformed me into a more proactive mobile user”.
