It seems the Nokia Lumia 900 launch is going pretty well, with reports on twitter that some stores are sold out of stock, and the handset remaining top of the Amazon charts the whole day.

The Amazon charts are in fact updated hourly, and currently has the Nokia Lumia 900 Black in the first spot and Cyan in the second.

It will be important for Nokia to maintain a top 10 position in this list, and it should be a simple way to track the performance of the current flagship Windows Phone.

I'm debating over the Lumia 900 or the Galaxy Note.

I don't know which one to get :(.

Is the Windows OS any good? Never really played with one, besides their online phone thing. I know Android, so I know what I am getting into. Also, not a fan of stock operating systems, I prefer modded ones, like CM9.

Amazon reviews are entertaining.

I'm sorry all... you lost me at windows. This is an old company that has nothing but bugs in all of their systems. Hello future (iOS, and Droid), goodbye I just bought a new nokia lumia 900 and can't connect to the internet because I powered down once. Just like all fruits of this world. Mangos spoil too. One more thing, what is "internet explorer"?? People still use that junk. Win Mango would have a better chance in the market if they changed the name. People that desire HUGE problems use IE. Get a clue...

signed,

your faithful (anything but windows) tech geek.

I read that The Lumina sold only 2 million all last quarter. The iPhone 4S sold 4 million in one day. Nokia has a long way to go.

One thing about being on top- there is only one way to go! Everything has a beginning and they are reporting that this quarter- the one where the Lumia 900 was introduced- will be a little better.

Good to see that it's selling well, I actually saw my FOURTH windows phone the other day!

Although the user turned around and said, I can't wait to get back to Android. His biggest issue was that there is no way to do a desktop sync for his contacts? (I don't know this to be true, or if he hasn't looked in to it) due to the sensitive nature of his contacts, he didn't want them backed up online in the skydrive.

I bought my Lumia 900 yesterday at ATT. Love this phone. Coming from the original Samsung Focus, and I can say that someone has finally done capacitive buttons correctly. I haven't had one mistake touching the buttons. Bing Maps looks a little bit more detailed as well (I'm sure they are using some Nokia stuff in there, I'm gonna use Drive soon).

We've heard from AT&T that sales of the Nokia Lumia 900 are"exceeding expectations," though it isn't saying exactly how many have been sold so far. If AT&T's site is to be believed, the Lumia 900 is selling so well that it's out of stock. We've heard similar claims from some AT&T retail stores recently, as well. While that certainly helps back up AT&T's claims, it's worth noting that the handset is still available from Amazon Wireless. The fact that the Lumia 900 is out-of-stock at AT&T might be related to good sales, but it's also possible that AT&T is removing the phone from its online store due to the data connection problems that have plagued this handset's launch. That said, with a software update rolling out to fix those data connection issues, hopefully AT&T will have the Lumia 900 back in stock with the update applied soon.

The lumia (not lumina) 800 is only available in 6 countries (USA isn't part of them) and is the first iteration of WP for Nokia.

The iPhone 4S is the 4th iteration and is available in many more country. Plus apple = religion.

    • Hey Google, these are the Gemini features I want in 2026

      By Snake Doc · Posted

      I used a Pixel 10 Pro XL when it first came out for about 8 months. When I first got it, it was using Google assistant and that was fast, when asking it to call somone etc. Then it automatically switched with some update to Gemini. Doing even the simplist of things like asking it to call someone in my contacts was soooooo slow compared to Google assistant. I guess it had to go out to the cloud to do that? Back on iPhone and while Siri is dumb right now, it does do those simple things, like call someone, set a timer, star the stop watch etc, really fast. That an while I like Google Material Design 3 over iOS 26, they Pixel 10 Pro XL was so slow in comparison to the iPhone 17 Pro I am using.

      I use Gemini in my rotation of AI clients...that work pays for. It is good at most things, better than copilot for imgage searching and making images, worse at writing vs Claude and way worse at hadling technical issues when it comes to Azure stuff. I also use YT premium and maps. Anything else Google is a pass for me. I have now seen multiple people locked out of their Google accounts for reasons that are just very vauge.
    • Microsoft is building an AI datacenter that "uses less water than a fast food restaurant"

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      Microsoft is building an AI datacenter that "uses less water than a fast food restaurant" by Ivan Jenic Image: Microsoft Microsoft has announced plans to build a new datacenter campus in Pecos, Texas, as the company continues to invest billions in AI infrastructure. The new facility, called project Kilby, will reportedly have a capacity of 2 gigawatts and will be one of the largest single capacity additions in the company’s history. To power the campus, Microsoft signed a 20-year deal with Chevron to supply natural gas from the Permian Basin, America's largest oil field. This deal is set to become the largest collaboration to date between a U.S. oil and gas giant and Big Tech. It’s no secret that Big Tech has often been criticized for exploiting natural resources for its AI developments. Microsoft is trying to mitigate some of that negative consensus by promising to build its own power supply for the new datacenter, independent of the public grid. The Pecos datacenter will be powered by a power plant hub, built by Chevron, with up to 2.5 gigawatts of gas-fired capacity, with potential to scale to up to 5 gigawatts. The facility will include at least seven GE Vernova turbines, with first power potentially coming online as early as late 2027 or early 2028. The power plant hub is part of an approximately $7 billion investment by Chevron, making it one of the largest dedicated energy projects tied to a single datacenter campus in the U.S. Microsoft hasn’t publicly disclosed the amount it’s investing in the new datacenter. Microsoft has also committed to implementing a closed-loop cooling system that will only require an initial water charge to operate. The company said that “the total lifecycle water use of this datacenter is only a fraction of that consumed annually by a typical fast-food restaurant.” What the press release doesn’t mention, however, is how much water the natural gas plant itself will consume, or how a 20-year fossil fuel commitment squares with the company's pledge to be carbon negative by 2030. The construction of the new datacenter should provide over 6,000 construction jobs at peak build-out, and create hundreds of operational job roles once the facility is built. Via: Reuters
