THAT would be great....Asked the same essentially back in post #273...OMG I always loved the screen real estate and the keyboard keys size...freakin goldilocks...both are not too big nor too small....the freerunner used the same company brand ...Toppoly...it was a 2.8 whereas the nokia n8x0 used the 4.3...diff connectors tho compared to n900.... One of the biggest probs...even if functionality were achieved would be ALL the metal casing impeding phone function...I imagine a workaround of some sort may be possible externally...or replacing the back with plastic....the resistive n900 lcd is different from the n8x0 line in many respects I'm sure ..so not sure what challenges lie there...not read-up on the specifics tho.....

Stillll...Would be grand if it could work...hmm...but I'm deviating...I'll be content with a functioning neo900 in my hands ...after that....well.... who knows the adaptations that may come on the heels from this new n900 successor?
