I agree it is a design flaw. The N9's that is. For using so much. The 1GB laptop I mentioned a few posts up used about 120MB on boot. I ran heavy applications on it like GIMP, DVD Author and LibreOffice and never used more than 500MB. So why does a phone need 700MB?

This comes from my N900. Does N9's free look different?

Code:

BusyBox v1.21.1 (Debian 1.21.1power1+thumb0) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

~ $ free
             total         used         free       shared      buffers

My WiFi password contains only basic 7-bit ASCII characters but includes such stumbling blocks as the pipe (|) and backquote (`). I had no problems typing the whole thing on two Android devices but a friend's iPhone was an epic fail. After half an hour we gave up trying to figure out how to type the backquote. I ended up sending the password to the phone by SMS.
