Still bummed they stole it from me.... what, 12 years ago?

Thanx for the memories!

PS. I was so pissed when Sony and Ericsson merged. It reminds me a bit of the whole Nokia & M$ deal. Why do outsiders always ruin/stop/derail/hamper Scandinavian innovation? /off topic

I think yes. I may wait for the 8-core model and also may wait for the Tizen version of the same hardware.

I use multitaskin in Galaxy S3 so much, I have noticed, increasing RAM fro 1 GB to 2 GB would help, so S4 is a good choice.

If Samsung gets its Tizen right, it is easier to port Maemo applications then to Tizen. Lets see.

I'm not follow you on that one(might be my limited english skill

). Why would it be. What do you mean right? you wont be able to run maemo application on tizen? why not port them to tizen If you run tizen?

I meant, it probably will be easier to port (or just run) Maemo applications to Tizen than port whole Maemo 5 to S3 as aizudean asked. And I believe, Samsung may provide Tizen to S3 also.

I doubt Samsung will "provide Tizen" to any of its devices or its competitors.

Any Tizen device are devices either sold directly from Samsung, or are ported through community efforts.

It won't be possible to port Maemo5 to any devices, Mer is your option.
Though technically its possible, the likelihood of this is slim. You might see Tizen get ported to the N9 though.

I doubt any Apps from Maemo5/6/etc will be ported to Tizen. I just don't see Tizen becoming anything different to the Bada-debacle.

→ the response goes to the proper destination (ie screen) → user sees the response happening (total >10ms).

(Grand Total >80ms)

If anybody remembers that comment, as well as this one:
http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...2&postcount=49

Here a team tried to calculate response times between several handsets. As you know the latest iOS came out on top, followed by the now-aging iPhone 4. Then followed by the top Android device at the moment (SGS4). Which was followed closely by the competitors (other Android devices, Nokia Lumia/WP8 device).

I want to see their follow on test, when they try it again on Android using a natively coded (C/C++) App. If the results are close enough to those of the regular Java App, then it will conclude two things we already know.

First is, Java is inferior but has closed the gap on C++ in certain fields.
The second is, the touch screen sensor is the bottleneck for latency in current devices.

For the next Note/GalaxyS I'd advise Samsung to use faster and more capable touch screen sensors to compete against Apple.

The good thing about this, now that its out in the open, manufacturers might take a step back from the lame spec war (ie dick measuring contest) and actually begin to bump up the overall quality of their devices.
