Is there a noticeable hardware difference between Google Nexus and N900 GPS? In the end this all due to a well-designed software isn't it?

Not really, The N900 and N810 have inferior GPS hardware. That is why I use an N800 with a super sensitive bluetooth GPS receiver. I get indoor reception most of the time. See my signature below for the make and model number.

My N900 outperformed the iPhone in a few recent Geocaching tests.

Doubt its going to happen for the N900. People waiting for this are probably going to be waiting for a long time.
