I didn't think about that. Without knowing a lot about javascript (I'm not a dev, I just dabble in programming every now and then, but my javascript knowledge is largely theoretical), isn't the engine used in the browser playing an important role in performance? WRT to the javascript performance, android's biggest breakthrough was a software one- getting the v8 engine in 2.0. Even the Hero's performance improved significantly when I stuck 2.0 on it. I also recall playing with a Desire, clocked at 1 ghz (different architecture than the N9's TI CPU, granted) and browser performance was very, very good even in heavy websites. I'm optimistic that with a good engine, the N9's performance will be good enough.

Anyone know why?.
Not the one I visited in Bangkok but I accept that this might be happening. Also curious as to the reason.

There's some pretty awesome ones on iOS now.
I've been loving Infinity Blade on my iTouch 4G.
Awesome value considering how cheap it was.
And amazingly, they're constantly updating/improving the thing.
I'm not sure we can ever expect that level of gaming quality on the N9.
But it should cover everything else very nicely...
And WRT Android market, I haven't really checked out games.
No doubt there's some doozy's that are just as good, or better.

It's just too early to say...
We need some thorough testing of them side-by-side, that includes js heavy sites etc.

Hmm no apt-x is mentioned...
But they plug "cd quality" heaps so they must be using apt-x.
Sweet, def. looks like a N9 to me, please let it be true!
And that MD-310 BT receiver concept is pretty nifty.

@jalyst: Just googled IB... wow. Just wow. Didn't even know UE3 had been ported to iOS. What I really pine for, though, is a good, proper, waste half a year of your life to complete, rpg. Something like a mobile version of Baldur's gate, or an old and toned down Elder Scrolls game. A man can dream for Morrowind on his cell one day, right?

It is actually very RPG-like, but yeah I know what you mean...
They're constantly extending it's functionality, trying to tie-in making money "in game" etc.

I saw on the Mexican Nokia page that the N9 will be sold here. My question is... should I get one, if many countries won't be able to. I am afraid that support / programs / hacks won't be available. Already 'ticked' that there still isn't Adobe Flash support anymore for the N900, even though they displayed 10.0 at their conference.

My N900 doesn't get 3G here because the stupid monopoly phone carrier doesn't use the right frequency. N9 should be able to, I suppose.


What do you guys think? Would it be a waste of $$$? Should I wait for the next one?
