From the kernel diff and defconfig there's a BCM2048 (Bt + FM/RDS receiver).

Can someone confirm this?

Actually, could we see the dmesg output and list of modules?

Thanks

Here the data sheet (PDF): http://www.nokia.com/NOKIA_COM_1/Pre...data_sheet.pdf

It hs some information about battery life.

Does anyone know why the N900 lacks 802.11n?

This seems to be a strange omission.

Battery Times:

Always online: Up to 2-4 days (TCP/IP connected)
Talk time: Up to 5hrs WCDMA, 9hrs GSM
Active online usage: Up to 1+ day
personal email accounts

That's more vague than I'd like. I'd be nice to know if it records in Simple or Advanced Simple. Part 10 seems highly unlikely, and they'd probably call that one out a bit more directly were it used.

No codecs for Ogg Vorbis and Ogg Theora. But I would have been very surprised if Nokia shipped with those codecs.

There are a few hardware points obviously missing from the specs, so, no jumping to conclusions just yet (for example, then don't list anything about the front-panel light/proximity sensors, of if the video section applies to the main camera or the user-facing cam). I don't really expect any more from Skype and Adobe than then did the last time around. That 9.4 flash version might be an achilles heel for web usage considering some sites already go for v10

Nice, but why a smaller screen than the N810 ?? I'd expect a larger one (e.g. Archos 5).
And no more Wayfinder Maps ? That is way better than Nokia Maps.

Because it's a mobile phone now.
