Getting started with the N900 made simple
by admin on Nov.12, 2009, under Demo Videos
This video from Nokia Conversations walks through the initial setup of the device, when it is started for the first time. The idea is that the basic setup process will also serve as a “smart tutorial”. Learning without realising that you’re learning, in other words!
The “Language” dialog shows you how to exit the dialog without making any changes, simply by clicking outside of it (there’s no Windows-like “X” icon).
The “Time” dialog shows how to drag things around the screen (the clock hands in this case). The “Date” dialog shows how the “rollers” are flicked around to set the day, month or year.
Next we see a video of the “Get started” app, which itself contains a video of the N900. This is starting to get a bit recursive, but we see how this app teaches about the multiple desktops, how to launch applications, how to use the browser, how to switch between multitasking applications, how to access contacts, and how to return to the desktop.
