The best thing about this, is it raises the bar for everybody else. :)

I got this last night... didn't go to sleep until 7am because it seriously blew my mind.

Not because it's the best graphics I've ever seen nor do I find it totally incredible; mainly because the iPhone basically one-upped even my Sony PSP in terms of graphics. That's how far these little handheld wonders have gotten.

I'm impressed and ultimately know we'll probably never see anything of this quality or level on the Nokia offerings. People are too busy (can't blame them honestly, I just finished a ton of ScummVM games last month) enjoying stuff like FreeCiv and games from 15+ years ago.

It's not a bad thing, retro gaming that is. I'd love to see stuff like this.

It pretty much depends on the adoption of Meego by other manufacturers. If Meego is adopted and QT compatibility works the way it should, then you'll see this stuff on Nokia devices. If Meego isn't adopted (the likely path considering Android continues to advance while Nokia is taking its time working on the ARM version of Meego) then nope.

It's still possible, but Nokia needs to make some smarter moves in this new Arena.

I wish I could try it. I'll wait until my GF gets home, and then I'll log into her iTunes and 'sync' it.

In the time Maemo has been around, nothing like Unity3D, Unreal Engine or even an official Quake engine or any other well-used 3D authoring platform/engine has come about.

You say you think so, I say "like hell". So let's bet a nickel.

In this case, if I'm wrong, I still win.

Re: iPhone 4 Epic Unreal Engine
 

And what's the userbase of Maemo? The next platform that'll get something like this will be Android since it has the next largest (if not larger userbase).

Not sure about who has bigger since everyone is kinda messing about with their numbers.

@cap'n: seriously? Any iOS above v1.x should have an app called 'App Store' in it. Although you'd probably need iOS 4.x to run the citadel demo. Just swipe to leftmost screen (spotlight) and seach for App...

If you can't find it, perhaps your girl is a hardcore gadget freak (albeit the iFreak kind) that messed up her iTouch and i think you should take the time to appreciate how lucky you are to have been able to find such soul mate.

@Laughing Man: yes, but bottom left/right are usually not reserved for the main attraction ;) i'm not saying it's perfect without compromise, but the tradeoff is surprisingly less than i expected (from my initial "WTF THUMBS ON SCREEN?!" moment).

Hardware wise yes, OS wise NO! Users base wise = HELL NO!
N900 didn't even reached the million mark to attract the developers.

Re: iPhone 4 Epic Unreal Engine
 

According to here, massive. According to Nokia... <silence>

I don't know. I say smaller than the WebOS crowd.

Only thing that's been "confirmed" is that Nokia sold more than 100k in the first 5 weeks. What that means in total? Who the **** really knows.

Basically, you should feel bad for not worshipping at the Altar of Jobs.
