Oh great.

The design of GoboLinux is influenced by earlier systems such as NEXTSTEP, AtheOS and BeOS,
It's Mac-Lite!

I don't think it matters what Gobo is because the argument going on is whether ANDROID is really Linux or not.

Fatalsaint has very clearly explained why it is not. The statement from the google engineer basically reinforces what he is saying.

How about you make yourself believe that Android is not the Linux YOU want it to be now?

Fellas, fellas... Can't we love one another? Here's a mug of the Capt'ns fine spiced rum for each of you...

There are valid points on both ends of the argument but no universal truths, especially in this case. It all comes down to perspective and semantics; nothing more, nothing less.

Virtual memory: 768MB vs 512MB
Flash: Dual-LED vs Single-LED
HSDPA: 10.2Mpbs vs 7.2Mpbs
SoC: OMAP3 vs Snapdragon 8250
OS: Maemo 5 vs Android 2.1

Correct me if I'm "wrong", but what's so special about the Nexus? Even Moto Droid, Sammy Omnia HD and HTC HD2 are all better hardware wise.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
What???? are you high by any chance??

32 GB FLASH? 32GB Is the flash drive size. actual application memory is only 256 MB + 756 MB ROM

http://www.reddit.com/r/technology/c..._side_by_side/

Nexus has 512 MB RAM + 512 MB ROM almost double ram than N900

N900 has WIFI B/G card, Nexus has WIFI B/G/N card (N CARD)

N900 has 600 MHZ ARM cortex processor, Nexus has 1GHZ snapdragon processor

Hell ye, you need some correction...

---------------------------------------------------------------------
by the way i just bought my N900 few days ago, happy so far ( heard a lot about rebooting problem but glad it doesn't reboot on me) and guess what i got an invite from google for their Nexus one launch party so will be getting a free nexus from there as well..

YEAH!!!!!

This is not as impressive as it looks considering the Snapdragon does all processing.. the OMAP3 in the N900 offloads to a dedicated GPU processor and some other things.

So this isn't a direct comparison.

Re: Nexus One vs Nokia n900, what would you recommend?
 
what i read in some post here is also a concern to me (knowing nokia and their S60 phones)..

And thats the upgrade path.. Thats what Google with andriod and Apple with the iPhone does well. You have an upgrade path to the latest software.

On nokia phones at least until now this was just not the case. If your phone is 1 year or older, firmware upgrades where very sparse, upgrading to a newer S60 version or even just a Feature Pack upgrade is completely out of the question..
And this is bad.. i really hope that nokia doesnt follow that behavior with the N900 because then the N900 will be my last Nokia phone.

Nokia should state now that Maemo 6 will be available for the N900, hardware wise that shouldnt be any problem, yes the multi touch features i can't use then, but thats fine.

If nokia would do that then there is way more piece of mind and they will attract more buyers (and keep more customers) in the long run.
