Will the N900 be able to play DivX and Xvid videos such as one might download ;) - e.g. c.350MB TV shows - without any transcoding?

The short answer is 'yes'.

That's fantastic :cool:

I really can't think of any other smartphone that can do that. Top Gear, The Wire, Lost, Battlestar Galactica, here we come :D

Re: First N900 Review

This is a good year for smart phones.

I just cannot believe Android phones do not also play Xvid. And I know for a fact that Samsung I8910 Omnia HD can, I read a review of it that praised it to 6/6, pulling out video playback (TV series in particular) as one of it's strengths. That's a Symbian S60 phone.

Xvid support is getting fairly mainstream.

Yes, the Omnia HD can play back DivX - I forgot about that one - but I don't know about any others - in any case hardly mainstream yet in the phone world and a great feature to have.
