    The point is, there WILL be 32GB microSD cards so you WILL be able to have a 64 GB (and 96, etc) N900 not that far in the future. On the other hand you can't exactly choose to pop in a card to increase that iPod Touch capacity.

    The N900 has a Micro-SDHC slot, and 32GB micro-SDHC cards are coming "real soon now", so you'll have 64GB within the life of your N900 (when you add that to the 32GB built-in).
    By which time my music collection will be 75GB.

    Little to nothing is known about the hardware specs.

    Except it won't have a camera because Apple customers want a Gameboy: http://gizmodo.com/5355959/steve-job...-in-ipod-touch

    Well, it doesn't seem to be that easy...
    There is (was ?) the Maemo CJK project, which tried to enable Chinese, Japanese and Korean input (output isn't such a problem, only some fonts have to be installed) on the N700/8x0, but it never really worked. For example, it only worked for some applications, was not able to change the input-method on-the-fly, the original virtual keyboard got replaced and couldn't be restored anymore, ...
    The developers even suggested to be prepared to reflash your device!
    So that are only 3 languages and already many problems, but what about other asian languages, what about languages written from right to left, such as Arabic or Hebrew?

    Haha it's not the megapixels that matter as much anymore. It's the quality of the lens, sensors, etc..

    Though the n900 does have decent ones for a cameraphone..

    Nokia hasn't used proprietary cables in about 3 years. Nokia had been using MiniUSB, but has moved on to MicroUSB, the standard chosen for power charging and data transfer for most of the big mobile manufacturers.

    But I still feel you. My N95 8GB lacks removeable memory, and it sucks.

    I think sachin007 was referring to the iPhone, Apple has pretty much always used proprietary cables for their iPod and now iPhone and iPod Touch lines.

    I prefer removable memory myself, though I don't think I have any eaders that support micro or mini SD..heck my current one doesn't even support SDHC lol.

    to use the microSD in a reader, you need a SD card adapter. They're pretty cheap, and some come with the microSD cards now.
