For video codecs and media storage, the N900 kicks Droid's butt, but- Droid currently kicks EVERYTHINGS butt in regards to game emulators and this is fact.

If games are a low priority though, Android is a great phone centric OS, but VERY limited for hardware access- at least for now.

Um - which game emulators? Because if you check the video a day that nokia are posting - yesterdays shows several game emulators and they seemed just fine.

Oh and lets of course not forget that the wii controller can be paired with the n900 to turn it into a proper gaming rig - especially with the TV out. Droid my ***

That's not a problem if you got a high spec PC and running Windows XP
Or a low spec PC running linux.

"See how the N900 runs almost 30 applications at the same time and instantly switches between them. Your desktop PC would nearly stop at this point while the N900 is doing just fine and might as well run twice than that."
No big deal...my desktop can run a hundred without problem. I have a powerful PC.

There is still some UI slowdown noticeable. The animation becomes jerky.

@ joppu, well what do you expect.. I was extremely impressed when I saw 10 windows open.. but 30!! I would NEVER open that many windows at the same time anyways.. it's pointless.. But again, this all can be changed on future firmware updates...
