The thing feels like a rocket ship within your hands.
Nice, so they will have ability to encrypt spying on You using their 325345345 cores... While you will enjoy playing angry birds, or browsing web, which is *absolutely* impossible without 3543543 mhz GPU and mentioned cores

Of course, to do any serious thing, You would still need N900, that with 600-900 mhz CPU and 256 RAM do circles around nexus-dupexus in terms of real life usability

Enjoy Your new toy, nevertheless.

I have an n900, n9, galaxy nexus and a few other devices. I've been using Linux as my exclusive desktop for the past 8 years. I think I know what I'm talking about.

This is why you people on these forums cannot be taken seriously.
It's ok that fanboys spew out these replies all the time, but I didn't expect that from a council member.
What a joke.

Before I've moved to my N9 I was using lg p500 android - by no means a hi-end model. And I must strongly disagree with you. Real life usability, for 99% of the people, is calling, texting, emailing, web-surfing, playing Angry Birds and taking photos and maybe some GPS guidance.
And both of the devices (N9 and p500) can do that just fine. Of course, it is much more pleasant on N9, but it was not by any means a revolution for me.
And I'm pretty sure that overall experience (from the point of 99% people) of using N900 vs Nexus will be in favor of nexus (at least due to it's awesome, capacitive touchsreen).
If you think of hackability - well, I can agree that you can do more on N900, but this is not so called real-life usability for normal people. If I'm mistaken please by all means, enlighten me.

which aspect? Tell me? OS? The true geeky linux? Powerful software? Come on, android innovation = more core and ram, lol, they gonna say sorry you have to buy new device every OS updates comes, yes im a fanboy, event im an samsung employee, and android is nothing more than java bloating on the linux kernel, when you want to feel the real power of it you have to try top device, i say the truth, no offense, if you wanna texting, calling, browsing, games etc, why dont you get galaxy mini? Why have to get nexus? Why when you install angrybirds its asking permission to acces your phone? Its only game, lol, android=biggest spyware

@ibrakalifa

Pardon me for being curious, but weren't you the one crying his butt off about N9 having an OMAP 3. What's up with the sudden change of heart?

I'm quite unsure what does this mean - would you care to elaborate?

why dont you get galaxy mini? Why have to get nexus?
Well, the simple answer is that some people prefer one over another, even though they will never use hardware to it's fullest.
I, for example, preferred my N9 over SGSII (same price when I was choosing my contract phone)- but I don't think it is extremely better than it. Just felt better for me. Fanboyism is foolish, because it blinds people and distorts perspective.

Oh, I LOVE this argument.

See, on Android at least you get a notification about what an app wants to access.

Do you have anything like that on MeeGo? No.

I secretly wish I had the time to write a small proof of concept app (a simple game maybe) that in the background collects all info it can on your beloved MeeGo phone. I bet it could have basically everything from your texts to your emails to your photos...

MeeGo has no app security whatsoever.

Also, did you know you can write apps in C for Android? Not everything is in Java there, you know.
