Hehe, I have been an Amiga user and I know that for a lot of hardcore fans the proper lesson takes 2-3 iterations to learn
These N900 vs Pandora wars are absolutely silly.. and petty! These products aren't even our in anyone's hands yet! Near as I can tell, they sound more and more alike. ...and also we know Atari ST's were better than Amiga. **cough**
It seems the N900 will (might/would?) have only 128 MB of RAM and probably therefore also only 256 MB of NAND. Also, I haven't heard any mention of TV-out for the N900.
Karel, I asked on another thread but didn't get a reply, probably because the thread dropped off or something.
I'm usually interested in your posts, and i know you are obviously interested in/a supporter of the Pandora, but do you actually have an *interest* in it, ie in some business sense? I know it's really none of my business, but as someone who checks this forum daily and finds it a great source of both information and entertainment (for many reasons) and i'd dearly like to know,
I'm in the funny situation that GBP still keeps going down (but isn't that also true for GBP vs. USD?), so while I'm waiting for the CC setup to come online I'm getting to pay less and less.. 3% less as of today. With luck the change should cover any extra charges I may run into. Whereas, if I had paid via bank transfer the same day as the refund arrived I would have come out even (except for the bank transfer charge, which is a bit large to stomach.. one of the reasons I'm waiting for the CC setup, while the pound keeps dropping.)
I'm not overly worried about the money (as in whether it's a scam), just that I can see the Pandora moving progressively backwards into the assumed launch date for the "N900" ...
Wow, this is... shocking! Shocking, I say! Who would have guessed!!!1

There is no N900 vs Pandora war going on, aside from Karel's personal unhappiness with Nokia not doing exactly what he wants. As far as the product readiness goes though, I have much more faith in Nokia delivering a new tablet than in Pandora folks delivering their device. Simply because Nokia has got ...mmm... a history of delivering mobile devices, including three previous tablet models.
PS: As to which one is "better" I have no idea, especially considering that neither is available yet. It probably depends on what you want from your device.

Well, technically, some early pre-production runs of both devices are in the hands of developers from their respective camps. Alas, the RX-51s are inside Nokia, so only Pandoras are hitting youtube.
