Can't someone just implement an iPhone emulator for the N900? The hardware is similar enough.

Now that would be a really cool hack?

I start Holiday and parent mode tomorrow, so the earliest I'll probably get back to it is Monday. I used it for a few hours last night and I was very happy with it. It's only about 15 lines of code, mostly inserted JavaScript. There's plenty more to do, of course. For instance, there's no instant visual cue that it's happening, so one solution is what Apple did: an opaque animated overlay that eventually becomes transparent. Anyway, I'm motivated, and maybe the same time that Bundyo sorts out all his Fremantle/Diablo stuff, I'll have something more robust to insert into Tear and take it for a spin.

Maybe he is being an *** and running a cpu hog process in the background to make n900 look slow? Cant do that on iphone eh?

As i type this i am getting inexplicable pauses.

Also when typing in some search engine input fields - maybe that live quer y suggest assist could be disableable.

Otherwise browser is overall unbeatable.

music playback on speakers takes some cpu to eq the sound. hopefully that can be reduced. plugin headphones/line-out to remove that load.

I think Nokia's approach is better, and in this case it's up to the app to provide the parlour tricks.

(Though for really polished polish, to make transitions glitch free you do need some global scene management or compositing of app output.)
They should be using asynchronous circular shared memory buffers. The Window Manager is now the current app and so the output from the other apps isn't mandatory at the moment. Smooth scrolling and zooming take precedent so the WM grabs app output when it can. When the apps go into tiled desktop mode they dump their output to shared memory, not to something synchronous with the screen buffer. And this obviously would be transparent to the apps.
