S again am I been told here that the Samsung is just as much the toy the N900 is? it can be jail break and other OS can be installed? Not that I'd want to.. as there are more than enough apps... I'm sure to find all I need without having to break my phone...

The "average user" you say. There is absolutely no way fix the attachment bug unless:
  1. You live and breath Linux/Maemo/MeeGo
  2. You visit this board

You have to edit the file /home/user/.config/Nokia/Fenix.conf by adding on a separate line maxAttachmentSize=XX under [General] where XX is in MB.

There is no way this can be done out of the blue even if you are way beyond the average user, you have to know the inner workings of "Fenix" on the N9. For the average user the N9 will stay crippled forever.

On the SGS3 stuff just work right out of the box. But you can also do heavy modding by installing custom roms and so on. The best of both worlds, very similar to what Symbian and WM used to be like, only Android is better.

Yes, you can make a chrootable Debian/Ubuntu image for Android. I followed a guide to do so myself on the N9 for an Easy Debian-style rootfs image. :D http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1172504 Well, there are lots of apps that streamline the process, and I guess it runs fine since it's been tested/used a lot already..

For Fedora and Ubuntu, yes.

"jail break" is not a right word because it is as easy as power-kernel and CSSU for N900. See Cyanogen mod.

The first review of the SGS3

It's the new king of phones.

But this is slower than your average Maemo 5 session.

Also, you can't have OpenGL ES programs inside VNC.
(Perhaps someone should come up with an enlightened drawing API to bridge Android and GNU/Linux, or as I have started to call it, GNU Plus Linux ...)

Or better yet, move the entirety of Android off bionic dependency, and make it use glibc/eglibc. RAM isn't as much of an issue on cheapass phones as it was back when the G1 was hot ****, so why keep using bionic?
