@buurmas:

You list AT185 as one of your "10 most-used apps" but I can't find it PowerSearching this maemo.org. What is it??

So, with this talk of the graphics chip, I'm assuming that Mer will be MUCH faster (assuming it makes use of it)? I say this because the graphics chip would then handle the video, freeing up some CPU cycles?

I would not expect it to be much faster. I believe there's some penalty when switching between normal CPU operation and DSP or graphics acceleration. I can be wrong about this though! But hopefully better usage of current hardware would mean better battery life (when the "speed" stays the same).

Do you guys believe that with GPU acceleration, that video would run smoother ? And by video, I mean mplayer.

The N810 running Maemo4 can handle regular tv shows from the internet (350Mb for 50 minutes) but has some issues with fast moving images. Yes, I know that I could re-encode but I'd rather not

I would love to start playing with Mer as soon as it does the following 3 things:
- render web pages fast enough (like Tear on Maemo 4)
- run Maemo Mapper (with the N810 internal GPS)
- play multimedia files (mp3, video) at least as well as on Maemo4

From what I've gathered, sound is not working and GPS is not working either. I don't know if Tear runs faster on Mer than it does on Maemo4.

johnx keeps on saying he'll be the first to put a Mer port on OpenPandora, heck, even from before Mer got it's name
