I also desire the upgrades in terms of hardware from the upcoming smartphones i.e. snapdragon or a cool 1Ghz stock processor plus 512MB in dedicated RAM. To top that off, many things like portrait (which is slowly changing thanks to the people who dev-ed SUPER cool things like the latest FastSMSevo and other apps like FappMan which come in portrait mode anyway), or probably some other issues that I kinda think can be improved i.e. HD camera and 1020p videos...

hoewever...

i just don't know what I'll do without my N900 Maemo browser - MicroB. I saw some clips of the E7/N9 and it's still using the Symb browser of some kind...

I've become also so accustomed to taking 'opening apps' for granted that whenever I take another guy's phone, N8, IP4 or HTC or something, I just can't seem to enjoy the task switching experience via shortcutd or camkeyd like I do on the n900. THe fact that I can hold it landscape with the camera button conveniently at my pointy to switch tasks is SO ingrained in my usage of a phone. Even when sometimes it lags after opening too many apps, i kinda can live with it because I don't experience heavy lagging especially when OC-ed when I feel like i am going to run more apps.

I would only change probably if something like an exact phone like the N900 with a similar maemo system with the upgrades that I mentioned above would appear.

I'm just too pampered by the Maemo system and it's abilities....
