N9 [Shipping]: It's finally here [for some]! - Page 6 - maemo.org

Something tells me that the N900 will be far and away more popular and make more money than the so-called 'consumer-friendly' N9.

What makes this N9 different from other phones?? We wanted a Unique phone, not a every-body-can-use-it phone.
And no keyboard??? Pfff, anybody have news about the N950??

fresh from engadget:

N950

doesn't sound to joyfull for me as I'm no developer. Seems to me that the N950 won't be available to the mass-market. Damn....

I am sold, I really am, but the GPU on the Omap3 SoC is totally underpowered, and a qHD screen at 960x540 would not have been to much to ask.

don't think i was a million miles away:

the screen and dual-core might well have arrived with the n9 had it not been for the elopcalypse, but i am not unhappy considering what happened.

Sorry, you don't need a major media/press event for that. Now, get the SDK, take a look and then say the original remark to my face

Sorry, if I have to 'download an SDK' to start developing, then it isn't GNU/Linux.

Can I develop directly on-board the device?

Though they got many things right but just as i said "disruptive" and "special" and all that is written by some people who don't ever expect people to go so deep on what the words mean.

They are just words, don't take them as a some gospel from above.

Something i have learned long time ago fallowing Nokia rumors.

This isn't even bad compared to the Symbian rumors for past 3 years hinting all kind of amazing stuff, but in the end the devices have been nothing like said.

Yes i noticed that but so did the marketing people say about N900. While they where technically right it really had 256mb and rest was swap. Here i think we got 512mb and rest is swap.

Is there any manufacturer who got 1gb of RAM on a OMAP3630? Is it even possible?
