What are you talking about?

Where is the proof that this is even true?

Because the chances of them using the SAME processor that they used in a 2 year old phone is HIGHLY unlikely, especially as it is the successor to that phone..

Most likely going to be based on one of them ST Ericson bases, hopefully the one with the A9 and the Adreno GPU which looked perfect espc as nokia partnered with them AND ST Ericcson did show off a MeeGo running prototype of the U8500 system.

Yeah. I know that actually. It just copies the apk file.
But it's interestinig that, to the end user, it's what it is.

What I really want for my N900 is the ability to play 720p files.
I hate re-encoding / re-downloading as it can only play SD videos.
So yeah, the hardware is lacking there for sure.

Also, I would like a bigger screen / more resolution now.

Actually, Nokia will surprise the world if N9/50 uses this new LCD:
(They say a device will use it this year. wonder what phone will use it?)

I'm hoping it's not the iPhone5......

Installing some Qt based applications on Android pulls and installs the whole Qt library (temporarily codenamed Necessitas there) which is a dependency. So it does not take 3 seconds at all. Installing shared dependencies when needed is a reasonable practice, otherwise each application will bloat the device with privately bundled libraries.

The fact that Android installation doesn't handle binary dependencies resolution natively it's not an advantage - it's actually a deficiency of design, caused by the original absence of Android NDK and idea of all applications being Dalvik based. Now that Android has an NDK, it becomes a total mess.

What exactly is Flash 1.10?

Was that reversed? Even so... today my Xoom and Atrix got an update to Flash Player 10.3.

The 64gb specs looks to be consistent in both spec sheets so that is great news to me. Going from a 40gb n900 to 16gb htc HD7 really hurts

So, the N9/950 screen might actually be this one? http://www.engadget.com/2011/05/18/t...ppi-coming-to/

That is exciting ;)
