Second!

The N8x0 already handles 700mb rips quite well. So long as the action isn't too heavy w/ variable bit rate, they play wonderfully. I suspect that the N900 will chew through them. Also with optimization (using the DSP/shaders for calculations etc), we may further see higher resolutions still.

I should note that I think very high res video, like 1080p playback on handhelds is not terribly useful. When you consider the file-size of a video at 1080p and the length of time it would take to transfer, it doesn't make a lot of sense.

In this same chain of reasoning, 1080p outs for video are a little ridiculous right now. Of course, 1080p outs for other content could still be cool, but based on the res, perhaps not terribly useful in real world either.

As transfer speeds improve (lightpeak?) and storage size increases, 1080p video will find relevance on handhelds. Until then, it's a novelty at best.

I think Nokia's video res targets and composite outs are right-on-the-money.

Wow, that was off on a tangent....
