Re: Nokia- Can we have the keys to the kingdom?

If we manage to do such a stunning job that they can't resist, they may even make a hardware platform to our recommended specs :)

I'll buy 2, maybe 4 :)

Re: N900 CPU Overclock! be aware of your Climate temperature!

I've been running at 1.1ghz for months and it hasn't died yet, I suspect 80% of owners on here are running highly overclocked. I'm yet to hear of one dying due to the cpu frying
