NO, Im sure you cant do those things that really need LOTS of RAM. Android needs such device because of its memory leaks, bad optimization, blah blah... Just hope for a good OS, if so 1 GB will be completely enough for it. Forget about 2GB & quad/hexa-core on a mobile device
Agree on that. At home I use an old 2006 Mac Mini with 2Gb Ram (originally 1Gb). The system runs perfectly with Ubuntu 13.04, incl. heavy multi-tasking - no problems at all. But my MacBook (late 2011 model) runs OSX 10.8 with 4Gb - forget about good performances. It's slow and laggy as soon as I do some real work on it and have several programs running. So there's a problem with the software, not hardware...

So if Sailfish OS is done well (not like OSX for example) I really don't see a problem with the given specifications. I trust Jolla: They do their job with a certain passion for the product. I don't believe they would sell a phone they weren't enthusiastic about.

I would like to see how Sailfish performs on commonly used task:

1. Texting: how is predictive text, how is keyboard, does it come close to iphones? N9 was not on par with competition.

2. Email: does it sync with corporate email, how well is is threaded. N9 crashed all the time with my large inbox.

3. Calendar: will it sync flawlessly with corporate accounts.

The UI is intriguing, but if it fails the simple and commonly used tasks, as N9 unfortunately failed at, then Jolla is history.

I have to agree on that one. Hopefully Sailfish is more polished out of the box in those areas. It doesn't take a quad core or a lot of RAM to manage those tasks either way.

There is some rumours / speculation about Rovio making Angry Birds other half in one finnish paper.

http://www.iltasanomat.fi/digi/art-1288604858538.html

Rovio gives the usual "No comment" comment, ie. not denying or confirming.

Ghst & goblins is an old game too, but I don't care.
Do't mix personal point of view with the "point" : the O.S.
I,personally, don't care about gaiming in a miniminimini tv screen.
(i'm already nearsighted!!!!)

5Ghz is missing for wifi and no FM radio .

I dont mind the 1GB RAM, it seems enough. But 5GHz wifi is a good plus going forward as 2.4Ghz band gets congested in apartment buildings.

... and you'd be the first one to complain should it be missing.
