I don't know if the N9 will have a stock file browser, or whether it will be possible for a third-party developer to have their file browser launch when the button is clicked.
Good thing that this got clarified. I just saved 700€. There is now way that I am buying a phone that has so stupid browser that it can't even handle bookmarks in any sane way. No matter how high html5 score it has.

n.b. that today's N950 firmware update (flashers available soon, but the release notes are out now) is just beta 2 - it's still not the final software - the release notes explicitly say it's not complete and that stuff is still missing.

Well the bookmarks are icons in your main app list - not sure how that's a massive dealbreaker? The autocomplete history when you start typing into the url bar is quite extensive as well, if you prefer that way.
If you want more traditional behaviour, then firefox mobile runs quite nicely.

You're also only comparing every core component, not every single hw/software point.
But I somewhat agree, & have already argued to some extent...
That street prices eventually need to drop below that of street prices of SGSII's "ilk".

I think you mean ICS as in Ice Cream Sandwich (a future version of Android), rather than ics.com which appears to be unrelated.

Tens of bookmarks (on my N900 I have around 100 bookmarks, some I visit maybe once a month but they are still important for me) on already long list of applications. At least a bookmark folder is needed.

Also autocomplete history is not a replacement for bookmarks. Think it this way: do you want to loose your bookmarks when you clear your browsing history?

N900's browser handles bookmarks in a good way: you can choose what bookmarks you have and then the most used are on top of the list.

Probably. But the linked ICS also is related to tablets / applications, somehow...
