Since when did you ever see a Nokia device have better RAM and CPU power than competitors? Not a time that Nokia device have more RAM that I can think off.

Nokia N95-8G has 128MB while competitors has more than 256MB in the same year. N97 released in 2009 still only packed with 128MB while others has 368-768MB RAM. lol

Nokia hardware has always behind others after the N95.
Why did Nokia never made a sufficient enough RAM and Processor device? and yet it selling at higher price or equal to competitors.

I would scratched my head.
Some pixel density to share:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of..._pixel_density

They may be a bit behind in cpu / memory but the N8 has one of the best cameras ever on a mobile.

Nokia has always been segment driven, that's why there are so many different version, business vs multimedia vs whatever....

I have no idea how they're positioning the N950 so I don't know what they will put into it.

OS was not clear, don´t know what they call it. It was clearly not the same as the Meego I have seen on N900. But then again, Nokia will make there own look of the Meego, the one seen on N900 is the base version.

The most interesting question to me is, is there a HDMI out?
There have been some rumors going on that RM-680 would not have it.

Then there would be no point in having 720p playback and if that was the case then no need for a good GPU and etc. I hope it's not true.

Re: N9 hits FCC???

The earlier version had HDMI and the latch which hides the port is present. So the port was not shown, but I recon it´s there.

Re: N9 hits FCC???

There is certainly a Harmatten Terminal application, as it's being open sourced for N900 MeeGo Developer Edition in order to replace the current standard xterm we use, that doesn't work very well with the VKB. There is a possibility that the Terminal program isn't installed by default (though I find this unlikely) but it probably will be hidden away. I also here it's quite good. So lets see :)

Exactly. This is what i have heard as well.
While things can change i remember some pretty old presentation by Nokia worker that said terminal being there.

Don't find this a problem at all. If it's not there in default i'm sure we can bother to take 5 secs to download it.

@Mc_mice

Did you notice anything else that is worth saying?

Re: N9 hits FCC???

>ovi maps ... the application is based on qt

Does this mean that there might be a chance of us seeing a proper version of Ovi maps on N900/Maemo 5?

Re: N9 hits FCC???

It also goes to show, if you target N900 MeeGo DE, your apps will run fine under Harmatten because Harmaten uses the same UI toolkit (MeeGo Touch Framework) albeit deprecated in MeeGo 1.3. So the recommendation is to stick with QtQuick/QML. There are other APIs that are the same in Harmatten and MeeGo, like ofono. So hopefully my dialer application for MeeGo written in QML will work under Harmatten.

@Mc_mice

Capacitive or resistive screen? I pray for resistive, can't use capacitive with my long nails. If it's capacitive i have to pass.... :'<
