  Saab 900 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 900 was produced in 2, 3, 4 and 5 door versions, with a low or high pressure turbocharger, and in a very successful convertible version.
The 1979 900 was available in three versions: The GL had the single-carb 100 PS (99 hp/73.5 kW) engine, the GLS had two carburettors for 108 PS (106 hp/79.5 kW), the EMS and GLE had fuel injection for 118 PS (116 hp/87 kW), and the 900 Turbo produced 145 PS (143 hp/107 kW).
The 900 sedan was introduced in 1981 along with the phase-out of the old Saab B engine in favor of the lighter Saab H engine.

 NANPA : Numbering Resources - 900-NXX Assignments
900 numbers are used for premium services, with the cost of each 900 call is billed to the calling party.
Potential customers in search of a particular 900 number should download and review current 900-NXX assignments, find the NXX for the number they want, and contact the service provider listed to determine if the number and service they want is available.
Unlike toll free numbers, 900 numbers are not portable, so 900 numbers may not be ported from one service provider to another.

 Florida Attorney General - How to Protect Yourself: "900" Prefix Telephone Numbers
"900" numbers are called "pay-per-call" services because you pay for the call as well as the cost of the information or service provided during the call.
Charges for the 900 number calls are set by the 900 number companies, not by the government or by the telephone companies and often are much higher than regular long-distance rates.
Bills for "900" numbers should tell you who to contact if you think there is a problem and provide a local or toll-free number that you can call to dispute charges.

 BuyerZone.com | 900 Numbers: Printable Buyer's guide
Although the concept has been battered in the past by scams and negative press, 900 numbers have quietly gained acceptance as a practical way for firms to provide detailed technical help or post-warranty support to their customers.
900 numbers are an excellent way to charge support costs to customers who actually need the extra service.
Since 900 numbers are not necessarily considered to be that reputable, businesses considering using them should be very careful to think through the cost and benefits of the service before implementing a program.

 900 Numbers: FTC Rule Helps Consumers
When you dial a 900 number that costs more than $2, you should hear an introductory message or "preamble." You can't be charged for this message.
Under the FTC 900 Number Rule, companies are prohibited from advertising or offering pay-per-call services to children under age 12, unless the services are truly educational in nature.
Before you call a 900 number, be sure you understand the cost of the call and the nature of the information or service you'll receive.

 Digital Cameras Review - Nikon CoolPix 900 Digital Camera - Information, Specifications
The pivoting case is split in the middle though, roughly divided between electronic and optical functions, with the viewfinder and lens on the left-hand side, and the LCD panel, shutter release, and other controls on the right-hand side.
Overall, we were very impressed with the image quality of the '900: We expect this will be a very successful camera at the higher end of the digital point and shoot marketplace, combining as it does both greater picture-taking flexibility and first-rate image quality.
The '900 is clearly aimed at people who take their photography seriously, and we expect it to do very well in that market: While still not approaching high-end film-based SLRs in capabilities or flexibility, it sets a new benchmark for "photographer friendliness" in under-$1,000 digital point and shoots.

 TSN Saab for 1994: 900 & 9000
The 1994 Saab 900 is the result of a long and intensive development process, and the first "offspring" of Saab Automobile AB's 50/50 joint-venture with General Motors (Europe) AG.
The new 900 is based on a reinforced platform with MacPherson strut front suspension and a semi-rigid, twist-beam rear axle, along with a transverse engine--the first time in the 900 model range.
The 900 provides comfortable seating for five adults, and is classified as a "mid- size" car by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), compared to the "compact" rating assigned the previous 900.

 Saab 900
When I first turned up for a test drive of my SAAB 900 at my local SAAB Dealer the sales person was unable to start it as the battery was flat - so he attempted to jump start it from another SAAB.
The result was loads of smoke appearing from the SAAB 900 engine bay I suspect a blown alternator diode pack.
At a later date after the SAAB 900 was repaired I test drove the vehicle and the fateful decision was made.

 AKG Acoustics C 900   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
The C 900 comes with the PB 1000 presence adapter installed over the end of the capsule, resulting in about an octave of 4dB presence boost centered around 7 kHz.
Without it, the C 900 is relatively dull, and, while AKG calls the PB 1000 an accessory, I can think of many applications where this added response would help.
Comparing the condenser C 900 to a dynamic mic like the Shure SM-58 is not fair, though instructive.

 Steves Digicams - Nikon Coolpix 900 - User Review
The Coolpix 900 also has an optical viewfinder which is something that is lacking in the ePhoto1280 design.
What can I say other than the Nikon 900 is one of the easiest to use digital cameras that acts like a PnS camera when in the auto record mode.
It's quite small and lightweight and you hardly notice it is on the camera except when you look at the LCD and see how WIDE the image is. The Nikon WC-E24 lens is a 0.66x wideangle converter that almost doubles the field of view of the camera when in the full wideangle position.

 Telephony: 1-900-grows-up; maturing industry hits new markets - 900 telephone services - includes related article about ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
This may be the year the 900 industry begins to outgrow dial-a-porn, gab lines and celebrity update services and becomes a legitimate marketing, advertising and customer service tool for the corporate world.
Unlike the initial boom of the 900 market, which saw carriers sit back and watch the programs-and the profits-roll in, this next phase will require the carriers to move beyond acting as a mere pipeline.
Earlier this year, Sprint Gateways introduced a 900 marketing tool designed to help the carrier attract large corporate customers who are unwilling to take the 900 plunge without some assurance that they will reach their market.

 The 900 Club
The former taxi driver had always been unusually heavy, reaching 400 lbs in 1963, 700 lbs in 1966, and 975 lbs in 1976, but he claimed to have been in no way handicapped by his size until a 500-calorie diet sapped his muscle strength and left him at the brink of death.
In early 1972 Lang was hospitalized in Houston for a suspected heart attack, at which time he was estimated to weigh between 900 and 1000 lbs.
His symptoms proved to be caused by an inflamed gallbladder, probably aggravated by his weight loss, and the examining physician declared his heart to be "unusually normal." By 1980, Lang had reportedly reduced to 369 lbs.

It doesn't matter who dialed the 900 number — a minor, a guest or someone working in your home — the call will be billed to the telephone number of a call's origination and the billed party will be responsible for paying the charges.
Be aware that charges are always incurred when you participate in a program offered through a 900 number, even if the 900 call was originally accessed through a toll free number.
Keep in mind also that while calls to 900 numbers must be listed separately on your bill, calls to a service provider in a foreign country may not be designated as such.
