That might actually be crazy enough to work. Can anyone with good understanding of the I2C bus used for the other half confirm/deny if it would usable to host an external RAM chip or fast NAND for swapping ? IIRC there was some talk in the Neo900 project about hooking a RAM chip outside of the SOC to I2C and using it for swap. EDIT: According to Wikipedia, I2C seems to top out at about 3.4 Mbit/s, so about 500 KB per second. So swapping to MicroSD will probably be a better option.
This phone will collect dust, I will land it just under my n9 still cant wait for cheapment. We need another pre-order/shipping thread. Who want to do the honer? 1 GB is ok, unless you use it for more than a phone, if you want to play top notch games, the processor and 1GB is simply not enough. For a phone and some mails and a bit of web browsing it's OK. But I don't think any real advanced games will be available anyway. I don't play so 1 GB is fine by me. But don't come here any say that its good with ONLY 1 GB in 399 Euro phone 2014, its not.
