or n900 is underclocked?

I guess it is a different hardware revision with higher clock speed. After all, OMAP3640 is done with totally different technological process (45nm) than OMAP3440 (65nm).

I hope Nokia will release N950 for sale. I couldn't resist buying a N950

GPU throughput is largely increased with 45nm versus 65nm and adjusted pipelining. Android started the ARM clock speed race and they're the only ones competing. Everybody else is focused on optimizing and providing a fluid UI regardless of SoC and horsepower.

I guess we will see a lot of fake n950's on eBay.

I've had the device now for 4 full days. The more I use it the more I love using it. It's a very well thought out UX, and the device itself is great. Multitasking is a pleasure.

Frankly I don't use the hardware keyboard at all.

I still find the usage of the hardware keyboard more comfortable and easier - I often miss with a virtual keyboard.

I couldn't think of any problems with the software (all the minor details which may not be allright now, will be fixed in a later release).

And the hardware is also excellent...

The UX is very fluid and after two or three swipes, you get used to it. If you wanna switch to another app, you just toss it away. If you want to see the news or who wrote what on facebook, that is another swipe...

Hello.

Can you put photos on your n950?

Thank you.

I have envy! :D

I can confirm. usually sliding out the keyboard needs more effort than struggling with osk. only time I use hw kb is when I fire up the terminal.

Same for me. I'm using HW keyboard on N950 only when expecting to write longer texts in English or using terminal. For all other efforts virtual keyboard is good. I'm not even switching to landscape most of time.
