Re: N9 hits FCC???

Yet another Harmattan device rumour thread. :D Ok I reiterate my whishes once again:

1ghz single-core Armv7, TI Omap will do fine.
4" OLED
Hardware keyboard

That's it. If the first device will not have a hardware keyboard I really think Nokia should make another one with, like N8 and E7.

Re: N9 hits FCC???

i want it!

thats all what i have to say...

Android isn't optimised for much of anything, it runs like crap on single core, people are now ejaculating over the spec sheet of the SG2 and it isn't optified for dual core. It's just this endless circle of ********.

Nice and mature. Well, given that MeeGo is still unreleased, from my point of you are doing your share of "fantasizing" about how good MeeGo is or will become, so right back at ya buddy.

I don't know about you, I want MeeGo to be different, i want it to stand above Android by being able to claim that it's not fragmented, that it works well, and it's optimised.

Great. It can be dual core and do all those things.

European 24 month warranty only applies to the device new, hardware wise as is.

So the 24 month warranty is for faulty hardware. Meego lights will be turned off June 2012.

I would but have never been impressed with LG phone designs. Who knows what they'll produce in terms of SW.

The sad reality is that the N950 will likely have single core, not because Nokia thinks it is the right blend of performance / power usage but because Nokia management has no faith in MeeGo so they will only spend the minimum required to get the platform up and running. Maybe the only chance the N950 has to succeed is through software.

Hopefully the camera is at least decent like the N8.

Android is far from perfect but they have choice, they can choose from single core to dual core. They also have an OS that has proven marketshare and a customer base (which means they will have a future). MeeGo is still waiting to get to the starting blocks.

I'm not fantasising, talking about what would be best

You're basing it on how Maemo is, I'm basing it on a starting from scratch project.

I'm basing it on my experience with Nokia.

Re: N9 hits FCC???

Lot of memory, good display with low energy consumption, high capacity battery, good gpu with low energy consumption, good cpu with low energy consumption. That's my preference. Emphasis on low energy consumption and big part of that is optimized code.

Meaning that dual core would be nice but is it major/must-have to me? Nope. Nowdays when I read some smartphone conversations I feel like I'm in the middle of 3Dmark score nerd fest .
