As we all now, the n900 has a 600 mhz CPU and 256 mb of RAM.
To tell the truth, nokia could give the n900 more advanced and powerful components like: at least 800 mhz CPU and 512 mb of RAM.
Do you find the current spec satisfying?

We expect from the n900 to be a mobile computer, to run multiple applications at the same time and to run kde and other desktop environments. Will the n900 handle all these?


Feel free to reply!
The 600 MHz CPU and 256 MB RAM are both parts of OMAP3, so you'd have to change the entire hardware in case you're not satisfied with those specs. Also keep in mind that the 800 MHz ARM11 chips are far inferior to a 600 MHz ARMv7 (Cortex A8) chip.
