Hell, some of these new phones are doing HDMI output and even my Motorola Droid can plug into an external USB 2GB hard drive (hell, my old N800 could do that too!) if I REALLY want a ton of space as an example of handling media. What did yo u mean?
I meant as a SoC not CPU alone. The one implemented in the iPhone 3GS and N900 was better (slightly) than the Nexus One in something. It was either graphic or media rendering. I'm not quite sure..but that's not the point. It's still clear that the N900;s hardware is not bad.

About the IR thing..it's 2010. Does your TV work with Wi-Fi? IR is still used. Although I never use it..it's there and worth mentioning.

This is not a patriotic post gerbick. Not at all. But saying that the N900's hardware is bad is unfair. When it was released it was just as good as any HTC. That was my point.

It's more the software that is to blame IMO. Maemo is great. I love every second of it. But what's with the slow Application manager..File Manager..Media Player..Email..Calender.. practically anything Nokia added is slow.

That and only that would be my complaint. I don't really care for Flash 10.1. And I think Nokia should have been clear about their intentions with the N900. I would still have bought it..but at least I wouldn't feel cheated (the whole Meego thing).

I don't know how we ended up discussing hardware..when the topic is completely different. It's a stupid topic though. When have Nokia ever used any OS apart from their own?

If Nokia is good at one thing..it's pushing back deadlines

Employee -Oh no..we haven't finished yet!
Boss -Don't worry. We'll delay the release date.
E- Umm..we still have not finished developing.
B- Umm..ok. I guess we can push the release date one more time.

E- We haven't finished polishing up and removing all the bugs.
B- Don't worry. Just release it. We'll fix them later with an update.
