AFAIK the N900 already has 1 GB RAM, or is that a joke I didnt get?

Re: Brand new "N900". HOT
 

The N900 has 256 MB RAM.

I think if we actually had a fully functional openMaemo build up and running we might see our Chinese hardware hacker pals in one of the electronic ghettos roll out a N900 with upgraded hardware.

Re: Brand new "N900". HOT
 

would be interesting if the cases or keyboards are any good as a source for Neo900 should there be a shortage of real parts at anytime in the future.

Hmm...
speaking of which...
y'know it's bound to happen...
Shortly ...
in a few years ...possibly a year...after the Neo900 is out...

somewhere in asia...
there will be "Neon900's" showing up...

I know...I know...
they both appear to be identical...
But I did some nut-and-shell-game switcheroo-ing and I think photo no.2 is the "real" Neo900.
I think something is "off" on the 1st photo..I bet it is the fake...
Hopefully...under the microscope we'll notice any hard to find discrepancies and they'll be easy to detect....

I hate people who profit from IP violations and I would never buy these dodgy pieces of crap.

The ones that look exactly like a real N900 on the outside but have the usual crappy cheap "fake phone" hardware and software that the phone fakers use is the worst.

Re: Brand new "N900". HOT
 

I would consider getting a N950 fake if it functioned reasonably well and I could put, say, fedora or debian on it.

Re: Brand new "N900". HOT
 

All of the fake phones I have seen use really crappy hardware and really crappy OSs (if you are going to build a phone with a Qualcomm Snapdragon or a TI OMAP or a similar relatively-high-end ARM part, you may as well build an actual original phone and sell it rather than building a knockoff-phone.

I seriously doubt any of these fake phones have the grunt for Linux in any form (Android included)

Re: Brand new "N900". HOT
 

Not in any form at all? I see Linux running on all sorts of embedded devices these days, and there are quite a few lightweight Linux distributions available... :)
