Re: Did apple do this?
I have nothing but good to say. And, I would not normally bother to say this, as it is a useless post, except when some nitwit claims the update is rife with flaws.

Re: Video format
The N900 does not play HD video, which is your 1280x720 file. Does do 800x480. AVC is not a problem.

Re: Movie Trailers
These trailers are great - and are encoded exactly for the great N900 screen - 800 wide.
I can easily tell the difference between videos encoded at full and half resolution (400 wide).

Well, I own both. Your statement is not very informative, but I respect your opinion. However, there are two important dimensions (ignoring the keyboard) that the Mylo totally dominates the 770/800:...

Re: Considering a N800
What is the bit-rate for the video? What is the sampling rate for the audio - 44.1? 48? 32? The specs are incomplete. And skipping "a bit" does not sound very inspiring, not to mention the lower-fi...

Re: Considering a N800
You have the same needs I have, and I have both the Archos and the N800. For multimedia, the Archos is great, because (with plug-ins) it plays almost any video and does it well. It's browser is not...
