Just checked, it was Michael Jerz at the My-Symbian blog who said it was the same as the i8910, since he actually has the N900 to hand seems like a reasonably trust-worthy source.

The guy at My-Symbian says the Navilink 6.0 chip supports 802.11 b/g/n. The N900 does not support that officially. If I remember correctly most Nokia phones come with a Navilink 5.0 chip.

The official spec is 802.11 b/g.
How much more power does 802.11 n consume compared to 802.11 b/g ? Is that even an issue ?

Ah, shame that it wouldn't support n speeds. Would be nice to have some future-proofing. Though I guess even with n speeds there would still be bottlenecks somewhere.

That would seem sensible, but the beta kernel indicates a SI4713 chip for FM TX, and a BCM2048 for FM RX. The BCM2048 is BT 2.0+EDR, but the N900 specs say 2.1. Confusing much? I suppose it's possible they switched at the last minute, and this would also explain why FM RX is not supported.

Oh well, maybe one of these days we'll finally see some dmesg output...

The Bluetooth chip is a BCM2048, and it supports FM RX. The kernel source clearly says so.

Are there details on what the sample rate is and if it can be changed for more precision?
