Tegra II Dual Core @ 1GHz (overclock-able to 1.8GHz)
1 GB Ram LPDDR2

Wow! I'm glad Samsung still knows the keyboard, it is simply brilliant!
erhmmm, well,
at least one slashdotter said something a tad different:
I recently left the n900 world for an Android phone - my first - the Samsung Captivate Glide (SGH-I927).

I expected to root it easily; I hadn't realized how hostile manufacturers are becoming towards their customers. Indeed, as I write this, I still haven't succeeded. It actually feels like I may be the only person in the world who bought this device, which, to me, is utterly confounding.
It is still Android, unfortunately,
but the moment will come when we get something
that is not locked - it is only a matter of time now...
