i did before...

i asked K123 about the cam and he was just suggesting that it could be better for landscape mode or something like this...

If i hold my N900 upside down, sometimes my hand is over the place of the cam, so i think that this place is not the best...

my guess:

thats the cam for gesture control

I shouldn't have tweeted about it at first place^^

For someone that shouldn't speak about something you are writing way too much

Same game as with N9 hints? Who want to play?

Nothing hardware related

It will be something for the community, but no, not a device (do you remember: nothing hardware related)

Meego 1.3 for n9?

I've heard it can stimulate higher-brain functions.

oh please, it's nothing secret from any company. ^^
I just don't want to speak about it, because I don't know if it will work out as planned today. No info - no disappointment.

yeah i would guess the same. remember the n9 teaser when it says our next sense? a nokia designer is saying the same in a video from last year about gesture control: ...“but who knows maybe we will create in the future a device that will almost give you a sixth sense“.

EDIT: Another nokia video showing volume-control by gestures.

So do you get a kick out of indicating that you might know something that we don't? Or what's the point of these 'I know something but I'm not telling!' posts?

I'm just curious what your motivation is so don't get upset now

Well MeeGo 1.3 should be around the corner/released at that time...

... Maybe also PR 1.4

...I got it! Meego 1.3 WILL BE PR 1.4! :-D

I've clearly explained my reasons of not posting anything further about that.
