That's one of the points why quite some people avoid Android if you don't rely on games'n'stuff.
I agree with you man, but I switched to Droid 3, as I'm a heavy Emacs user, and Emacs is faster on it in the chroot, much much faster, than on the N900... And it has a MUCH better keyboard than the N900.

So not only those who rely on games :O)

But yeah, if I could get my hands on an N950, I'd probably be much happier with it, but it can't be had.

So I'm stuck with Android, and that's how I got to experimenting with modRana in it... And VNC is the only way unfortunately...
