Now, to answer your questions. I have a 16GB Sandisk Memory card. But I have seen people on this forum with 32GB mem cards. There is even one user that has: My N900 is running 64GB of memory" in his signature (can't remember who). But try to find who has the 32GB and ask them what card they wn, so you'll be sure it works. I didn't buy one because they're expensive. Even the 16GB is expensive. It's 50 euros here in Malta. I bought it for 28 euros used on eBay. I don't trust ebay sellers with flash memory (no offense to anyone). So I bought it used from someone who confirmed it has 14.9GB.

About the resolution. For some strange (actually complicated not strange) reason, upscaling a video is easy. But downscaling..it's a nightmare. You can try it on your N95, and even on your PC. If the max resolution is 320x240, you will have trouble playing 640x480. And if your PC resolution is 1600x1200, you will have trouble playing a video with 1920x1600. Don't ask why..just accept that limitation. It is to all devices. The video would be choppy.

Multitouch on resistive is possible (http://www.stantum.com/en/), but the trend is to go for capacitive..one of the things that are making me reluctant about the future devices.

Well if you can't wait, certainly go for the N900. I am not disappointed at all with it. Especially with it's media capabilities. Sometimes I sit in the car, pull out my car-holder, stick the N900 there, switch on the FM transmitter, put on a movie..switch on the car stereo..and surround system is on.
Checked ur edit... thanks for the added info..

Will sure check before buying a card and buy 32 GB one if possible.. And here in india, we can trust online shops more than local shops sometimes... i also plan to buy directly from someone who can show it can actually hold the said amount of data..

And is multitouch possible on resistive? i mean on n900? give me links if u have tried any...

And lastly,

Sometimes I sit in the car, pull out my car-holder, stick the N900 there, switch on the FM transmitter, put on a movie..switch on the car stereo..and surround system is on.
Now thats good old multitasking that i am familiar with...

Many thanks..
