Multitouch and resistive is a go. 89 dollar China tablets got it. I still believe it can be faked good enough through SW.

Either way, at this place in time, we should be able to expect some hardware innovation. Pressure sensitive capacitive or hybrid, I don't care, but pressure sensitive somehow. Is ability to accurately measure pressure better than just touch? Yes. Is ability to use with gloves better than not? Yes. Is better better than more hyped? Yes.

Anyway, I'll shamelessly plug my view on how Nokia should've done it. Based on the E7 page, I imagined THIS configuration page:

Step 1. -- Join developer program.
Step 2. -- ???
Step 3. -- N950.

If you consider that the N9 Doesn't even have FCC approval yet and the N950 does, one could logically assume that the N950 will be released imminently in order to facilitate development for the forthcoming N9.

Now consider this, you have two different devices aimed at two different groups of people. N9 for people who complain about lack of flash 10 with loltweets on their faceblog. N950 for the hardcore amongst us who just want xterm. Don't release N950 as a consumer device and you won't need to provide consumer support.

Also, consider it has taken almost 2 years to get the N900 to where it is today. Both of these devices are going to suck on release.

I hold various domains for different purposes one of them is n950.com

I could route it to this thread :-) This would make this thread really epic having its own domain :-)

Do you guys think it'd be possible to flash N900 with N950 image from http://www.developer.nokia.com/info/...kFlashers.html

No flash support, no FM transmitter, no widespread market... This isn't what I was hoping for...

N9 may not be sold in the US..

It's a shame though, I would rather have bought this one. As it looks now, I don't think I'm going to be a part of Maemo generation 6.

it is in the bottom right corner. The actual camera module is same.

Conflicting info here???
