NO, Im sure you cant do those things that really need LOTS of RAM. Android needs such device because of its memory leaks, bad optimization, blah blah... Just hope for a good OS, if so 1 GB will be completely enough for it. Forget about 2GB & quad/hexa-core on a mobile device
Agree on that. At home I use an old 2006 Mac Mini with 2Gb Ram (originally 1Gb). The system runs perfectly with Ubuntu 13.04, incl. heavy multi-tasking - no problems at all. But my MacBook (late 2011 model) runs OSX 10.8 with 4Gb - forget about good performances. It's slow and laggy as soon as I do some real work on it and have several programs running. So there's a problem with the software, not hardware...

So if Sailfish OS is done well (not like OSX for example) I really don't see a problem with the given specifications. I trust Jolla: They do their job with a certain passion for the product. I don't believe they would sell a phone they weren't enthusiastic about.
