Mistermix: Sholes seems promising but we still have to deal with the java constraint issue. It bogs apps down and uses too many clock cycles. My inferior chipset Dingoo eats the G1 for lunch in regards to game emulation and cost $85 delivered. The chipset is better on the G1, but it is being beaten to death due to the java layer bite code translation. Also, there are no video options other than MP4 and accleration is also an issue. Seems Android does some things good, but hurts others in the process.

BTW, the low app memory is also an issue on the Sholes and every other Android device on current roadmaps.

Give us the functionality of the G1 and Android in the hardware and OS of the N900. Dang that would be sweet
I suggest you wait then. Next 6 months you should see some serious android hardware coming out. For me as a dev its the android java env that I can no longer live with.
