will be getting my n9 in a few days and i wanted to ask a few questions....

will there be a cssu for the n9?
if not why not?

is there any way to "port" the n900's microb browser over to the n9?
or in some way get flash into the n9's default browser?
(i know there is firefox but when i used it on the n900 it felt
laggy and slow)

is there a torrent app available for the n9?

any answers are very much appreciated

Too early to tell but signs point to no, Harmattan is more closed off than Maemo was, but its still too early to tell...

another question is there a rootsh file for the n9? and generally speaking files/apps from maemo os should easily work on the meego os?

There is opensh as part of inception, but if you don't know how to use it, don't.

No maemo apps/files don't work on Harmattan unless they are ported over.

You mean between Maemo6x (aka MeeGo-Harmattan) & Vanilla MeeGo? (now called MeR*)
Generally yes there is compatibility, but that doesn't mean that apps "just work".
Often there has to be library/package "voodoo-ing" that goes on...
And even if that's sorted the UX's both systems use are different, so apps will look out-of-place.
So ideally if it's a GUI app, the the UI will be redesigned to meet the guidelines for that platform.

*which uses various UX layers e.g. Nemo/Plasma/Cordia etc.

Yes you can do the same or similar...
Enable developer mode or there's even a terminal app in the store IIRC.
There are limits as to what sort of access you have to the system.
But in practical terms for the avg user it's usually not an issue.

You do realize that 99% of your comments are pure trollness nowadays right?
We get that you dislike the platform & the device now, & that you've moved on.
That doesn't give you the right to be on some kind of mission to "convert" others.
You're almost as zealous in your campaign against it as you were for it just a few months ago.
It's quite sad to watch... Keep posting the way you are & the reports will add up.
Maybe that's what you're aiming for....
