Is there any truth to this compass business? I don't recall seeing it in the specs, but it may have been revealed in early fremantle builds.

Edit: he specifically did not say 1 GB virtual memory, he said RAM.

edit: on every nokia site it is listed with 1GB ram. although it's only 256mb ram and 768mb virtual (swap) ram. so that he says, that it does have 1gb of ram is not a reason to say that it doesn't have a digital compass...

I agree it doesn't mean he's guaranteed to be wrong about both features, but it does mean we should take his understanding of things with a grain of salt.
Note that my quote is also wrong in another way. The correct specs are 1 GB virtual memory, 256 MB RAM, 768 MB swap.

I have read about the digital compass from other sources on internet, and other vids. However we canīt be sure until someone actually tried it.
And that is strange to me, i mean for 2 days people visiting nokia world have gotten plenty of time to play with the n900. However almost 90 % of all videos alway shows the same stuff. (desktop, multi-T,video playback and so forth) I hope a "real" techie gets some hands on time with it soon.! We need answers!

I didn't get it to play using Media Player Classic HC, so I'm not sure whether this is a right video or not,
