I have looked at the omap3 a bit this weekend.
I have to say, from the perspective of a hardware platform its spectacular.

I've heard some about the new platform we are going to have.

Things which I struggle to do now become easy, the amount of raw power the omap3 puts in the palm of your hand is incredible.
being able to take a real picture with a decent camera makes my spine tingle.
I would be saddened if nokia *didn't* jump to it.
Once you have all that power you try to make use of it.

I bet the UI on Fremantle kicks ***!
I can't wait to see it!!!





Now that does not help you or I with our n8x0 devices.
We are seeing bugs marked in one product (n8x0version) as fixed on new/drastically different software version.
I gather the problem here is that the bugs are in closed source packages?

I wonder if nokia would do the honourable thing and open up the closed software packages with outstanding unfixed bugs/requests against them.

Of course, if Nokia were continuing to actively develop and support those packages in the current OS then there is no problem with them remaining closed.

But I think the community could join in to care for this software and allow Diablo to live as long as it needs with a happy user base.
