Without trawling through the whole thread, so at risk of repeating posts, I find it hard to believe/understand why the desktop has been got rid of - I find it a massive pain in the arse to scroll through all my installed programs in order to find something. having a desktop, or even better, multiple desktops makes it a lot easier to have programs that use use often right there, plus shortcuts to a frequently used number is well handy.
The way the N9 seems to work is akin to getting rid of the 'All programs' button in windows startbar and just dumping everything you install onto the desktop..

faster processor just allows lazier programmers. u wont utilize the power of all those cores, on the contrary, just make the battery life shorter.

I would tend to agree with his sentiments, if that's the case. Correct me if I'm wrong, m4r0v3r.

Actually, if the N900 is really close wrt PSX, it wouldn't suprise me if the extra 400Mhz and the fact it's properly optimized to the hardware with more up to date floating point ARM optimizations, would make PSX work well ... But we'll see.
