You just need to set it from settings before this comes available.


This is great if true! So you could close the apps fast when you are inside it.
That's true, though the swipe is from up to bottom -- the other swipe just puts application into a recents view.

Felipe (now famous for his arguing with Elop) wrote a patch and me and Urho drove it through the management at last. Congratulations to Urho and Felipe on persisting and getting it not only as configuration option but also in Settings UI.

There are so many small details to consider when introducing such "seemingly innoncent" features that it was not so easy to convince people. Still, it shows it what is possible to achieve together in an open collaboration mode.

Harmattan has hardfp enabled. In fact, MeeGo/ARM went to hardfp because it was extensively tested that way on Harmattan toolchain first.

That's not even nerd funny

That is some good news about the battery. My guess is i actually might afford an N9 short time after release, especially when Nokia itself is trying to sabotage it.

As a game developer, I have to respectfully disagree. I am not excited about mobile Flash yet, but Flash itself is a terrific platform for stable, wide-reaching casual games. With Flash11 even more so thanks to the 3D accelleration. This will become even more significant when Unity is able to target Flash as a platform.

HTML5 is good for interactive content and decent for non-distributed games, but it is not going to be a full Flash replacement anytime soon.

Well, i was browsing through some N9 videos and came across one that got me wondering:

Look at video "9- Nokia N9 – Browser + Add Bookmarks to Apps" on this link:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...qYGZIF9M#at=42

At 0:41, notice that green ad on the right for Qliq (i attached a screenshot of the frame in question), right above the "FA on Facebook" black bar. Seems innocent enough but it got me wondering because those ads are flash. I went to the fonearena link the video was testing and on that exact space on the website, there is a flash ad space. Go test it yourselves:

fonearena.com/blog

And compare to the video.

For all its worth, the browser might convert flash to a still shot, make some magic trick instead of placing a "no flash" bitmap where flash should appear, but what i see is a full web page with no empty space.

Any thoughts or theories?
No Flash. If you see anything that looks like Flash, then it's HTML5. I believe that some (most?) ads are intelligent enough to show an HTML version if Flash is not available, and have seen it at least once.

The task manager shows your last used apps firstly thus reagganging on the go. So probably a no for rearranging in task manager.

On a side note, I heard some speculation about a closed down UI is that true? would be bad for modding. I'd hate to jailbreak something that is named Maemo6/Harmattan, sacrilege!
There is nothing to jailbreak, you can of course replace all the ui packages and applications, you just won't have the source for most of them.

Presumably you've seen http://chrome.angrybirds.com/ - the most impressive HTML5 demo I've seen.
