@bobby68: my swedish may be rusty, but didn't he say "This is an almost perfect product, if not for the lack of digital compass." ?

Nope. He says:

"you have the usual navigation, you have digital compass and a-gps with triangulation"

And I hope HE is not kidding...!

That's not exactly true. The drag is on OS level event and on most OSes a drag is interpreted as click if the drag end is still inside the button. Of course if the buttons are really small you're going to leave them anyway on Nxx0.

If the N900 has a digital compass, it is definitely the Easter Egg.

I saw no sign of it anywhere in any of the apps, only an impressive, system-wide use of the GPS to add location to everything, including geotagging photos, etc.

Does the gps work indoors also. If the gps signal is not enough will it geotag atleast with the co-ordinates using the skyhook system?

Thanks

No, but there aint no signs in the N97 either, so that's not an indicator.

A small sign COULD be in this video:

When he is showing the map, there IS a compass, down to the left. It's pointing north, just as the N97, when it's not calibrated...

So...?
