wtf? lol im driving, typing this, charging, and listening to music using the trasmitter right now.

Re: N900 Vs. Iphone (4)

Dont give me this false thing.. you cant charge while FM transmitting.. mine doesnt. X-/ and be careful but you're gonna kill someone... the amount of punctuation you are using tells me you are not driving at all..

This sounds right. Except, you can overclock the N900 to more than 800 Mhz, beating the Iphone 4. But remember, hardware doesnt only mean processor speed, what about all those amazing features such as FM Transmitter, FULL bluetooth (which the Iphone lacks), IR.. But good point :)

I thought the iphone 4's A8 was running at 1Ghz? Anyway the N900 can beat it in CPU speed at least in some cases and it has better connectivity, but iphone 4 has faster graphic-card and better screen.
N900

600-1200 MHz ARM Cortex A8 processor
PowerVR SGX530 GPU
800x480 3.5"

Iphone 4

1 GHz ARM Cortex-A8 processor
PowerVR SGX535 GPU
640x9603.5"

Iphone 3GS

600 MHz ARM Cortex A8 processor
PowerVR SGX535 GPU
320x480 3.5"

I'm fine with the N900 screen honestly, but I wouldn't exactly mind better resolution. More ram of course would be nice, can't argue with that.

I forgot about that little limitation on charging and transmitting. I believe there's ways discovered by now to disable that little "feature". I believe it's a matter of grabbing one of joerg's patched fmtdx binaries and replacing it.

Okay, so... what? If you're actually doing that, you mean to tell me you're reading forum threads while operating a two-or-so ton highly mobile metal object? (Though I suppose you could be a native speaker of one of those languages where "drive" is also used to mean traveling-as-the-passenger-of-the-vehicle.) But seriously, it's one thing to rub in the versatility of your device, it's another to be doing that in a way that can put people and lives in danger.

Re: N900 Vs. Iphone (4)

Holymother of God. when did this started working..i take my words back..just went into my car and tested... Pr1.3 ??

Re: N900 Vs. Iphone (4)
