So long as it's user swappable I'm still in the game. I have 3 batteries and if I'm not at work, I'll always use at least two....

I would be surprised if this had lower media specs than the N8, which would be HDMI, usb OTG, fm transmitter, outstanding camera, HD recording and so on. I don't care if it's dual core this or that, sure it'll be compared to the SG2 but Nokia excel at having lower processors because the OSs actually run well - if it doesn't need 1.2GHz to run, i'll be pleased with the extra battery life.

I'd like to be as open as Maemo 5 but more mainstream consumer friendly too. Sadly, though, i can't see this getting too much promotion from Nokia

Lots of people care about those, and now that the market has a number available then releasing old hardware just makes you look bad.

With luck, they've reused the chassis but updated the guts. I hope so, OMAP3 will be a joke otherwise.

I'm very surprised that RM-680 is still coming out. FCC talks about RM-680_3. that version was running on the mailing lists about the time the pic of RM-680 leaked. TI workforce where everywhere on the mailing lists just like on the previous versions of RM-680.

Dsmobile from MR forums is saying that he is still certain that we wont see RM-680, but the qwertyless, Lankku.

Found hints abt keyboard:

The device has internal antennas for both cellular and WLAN use. The cellular antenna is located
at the bottom in the back section of the keypad slide. The WLAN antenna is located at the top in
the back section of the keypad slide
GOOD! Keyboard is #1 factor besides community why I still use this excellent piece of technology called N900

One of all, wow, you guys are fast, lol, i just heard about the news and came here.
Secondly, I am confused... what is the (rumored) difference between the N9 (which I thought was originally no longer in existence) and the N950 (which was officially "mentioned") ?
And I believe no matter how good the OS optimization is, it must have a minimum of 64GB storage, dual-core, a great gpu and lots of ram. Because knowing the community, we are gonna abuse this device, lol. I, for one, will research so much into making it run multiple OSes.

seems so easy to jump on any flaws already!

im just glad something is actually brewing and we're hearing more about an actual device as opposed to rumors. here's to hoping its indeed a meego device
