Keep our eyes open for PR1.2 guys.. Don't be hasty and come up with the conclusion just yet. We still got a long way to wait for it

I'm always amazed at how some people see the name of a technology (the meaning of which they don't know and don't care about), and they somehow think that it would solve all the problems with a product that they have.
OK.
In short words, V-Sync is a simple technique that makes the video card in your PC only render as many frames per second as your display can refresh itself.
By the way, I don't have any problems with scrolling on the N900's browser. It's a little annoying when you have to wait a second for it to render the area you've scrolled to, but it is still enjoyable for a mobile device.
In any case, I'm very happy with N900 and would not change to Apple (probably ever). I just see Apple's point of everything being smooth. And I see Nokia's point that the platform is open for development and everything can be done. Nokia's point is more important, but we should be able to solve both problems.

We may hope, that Maemo 6 (MeeGo) which is based on Qt Mobile designed specifically for touch systems, will bring similar responsiveness to our tablets.
