Please add hybrid resistive/capacitive display to the poll.
Maybe this should be forwarded to council, so they can talk with Jolla?

Not too worried about h/w keyboard. I can type faster on n9 than on n900. Would be nice is it's still a thin device and there's more space on the top row but i'll use a laptop if i've got to type an essay

Results Update:
An N900 successor
strong Meego Core but open to community software
OMAP5 Processor
lmore memory than 1GB (will that make a diff?)
physical keyboard
stylus capable
high res screen (720p or greater depending on cost)
I would be willing to pay more for my "Dream Device" The suggested retail for the n900 when I bought it was $599, I would go $899 for the next N900.
BTW: I know this isn't hardware related and someone will correct me if I am wrong, but don't we want the software to be deb based instead of rm? Will there be a backward compatibity/port issue?
Update: For those who want to vote screen size I think of 720p as the smaller screen 3.5" etc., and 1080p as the larger 4+ inch screens. Hope this helps in picking big screen over smaller.
Update 2:
I'm not sure why all this "HATING" is going on. This thread was simply trying to see what Jolla's potential customers would like see in their new device, thats all. This is a stand alone thread and has nothing to do with the other Jolla talk. Can't the community express what it would like to see in a new device?
The keyboard is most important
and if display should be lower than 3.9" i would not pay it sure, too small
and if the battery will be over 1800mAh is perfect
unless 2 days of use

As for me, OMAP5 seems to be bad choice because of their weird policy of restricting some things to "general purpose" devices and limiting HS devices only to huge vendors with NDAs.
And I dislike Qualcomm as it's more cellular modem than CPU. Sometimes I really want to get rid of cellular and I guess it's not something that is easy to achieve when cell thing boots first and only then UI CPU booted by it. Not to mention I have no reasons to trust to huge closed-source OS of cell phone which can have complete access to UI part and all it's resources.
As for me, Exynos could be interesting. As far as I can remember Samsung usually haves less of dumbrestrictions. At least I was able to find datasheet which explains all details of CPU including "secure boot" operation.
Tegra 3 also looks good due to powerful GPU (unfortunately very closed source one - potential source of troubles) and very cool idea with additional low-powered core. This could allow quite a good standby times while remaining fully operational.
Keyboard? I think it's smart to do 2 versions; one with keyboard and one without it. So everyone could be happy.
USB host is a real must. SATA is ... weird for phone.
Screen... as for me I vote for high-quality LCD. Because OLED would degrade faster. On other hand it consumes less power. Yet apple prefers LCDs and there are some reasons.
Battery... it's really handy to have replaceable one. Not to mention that when things are going wrong and battery goes fat, device could be completely destroyed if battery is not replaceable. As well as making it too hard to replace battery when it dies.
And sure, I would expect it to be N9/N900 successor for sure. You have to continue where Nokia nuts left. In fact it's very stupid move for Nokia. They finally started getting things right and... started to make dumb moves. Weird. Thank you Mr. Elop for destroying Nokia. Now someone smarter should have a chance.

bhe i know that jolla is working on a 3,5'' inches phone....
bleah unless 3,9''....
the importat point is BE SUCCESOR OF N9 to be a real meego device and not a N900 successor. N900 has nothing to do whit Meego
bleah unless 3,9''....

I'd prefer an N900 successor with meego/N950-Lauta successor

I liked my N900. I am on Android now and once a month the SIII owners mention something fantastic that will come and I'm all "...my previous phone had that".
The N900 had many flaws but judging by my Android phone, that seems to be the standard these days.
