There was a cool animated(if I recall correctly) video from probably 2010-2012 era; I believe before the N9 and N950 came out which showed a phone which looked like an N900 doing things like sharing location via chat and using NFC taps to pay or exchange contacts. It was a cool expo vid of a Linux based Nokia flagship in a timeline which never came after Elop/MSFT lit our platform on fire.
I know the link(if it is still up) is somewhere in the TMO archives but I have yet to find it after searching for a few weeks.

This reminds me of another video from back then where Nokia tried to imagine where technology will take us: Nokias Morph Concept

I would also love to have higher quality version of the N900 commercial. The one linked has horrible video and audio quality, making it difficult to enjoy.

Regarding the one you mentioned: I have never seen it, but would of course be interested.

It took a spicy siracha ramen bowl to help me light up enough neurons to dig down through the forums.

Why did that show never answer any of it's own questions?

While looking around, I found another version with better audio quality and a bit better video quality. Unfortunately the video is still 480p.

I had N900's for over a decade by now and I didn't know I could pay with it back then, wtf.

I am pretty sure you can install an early version of bitcoin core which runs on the CLI, possibly even mine for BTC.
Seriously though this video was was a collage of Nokia's hopes and dreams for a Maemo/Meego Linux flagship future.
