And regarding the 5mpx camera.... i have the nokia n95 8gb. And know exactly how the pictures are.... but for a device releasing in 2009 and with nokia already using 5mpx since 2 years... i just wanted higher specs...
Actually, you need a well written OS a bit more than you need better hardware. Beefer hardware means that you have to do more optimizations for efficiencies' sake in the OS. If you start with a hardware target that is already efficient, and then code around that, adding beefer hardware makes the system better.

Nokia has stated many times that they are more concerned at this time with refining the 5mpx Carl Zeiss lens and AF tech than getting into a megapixel race with LG/Samsung. Frankly, except for a few models (E71 and N81), they do have better quality optics than the rest.
