And second, it was already known that next version is coming out in first half of 2010, but for resale in later 2010, maybe 2011 Q1.
The video show "N00" not N900 phone...

I really hope that means that the n900 is like the n800 and the n910 will have a keyboard.

This thread sure reminds me of the n800 when the n810 was coming out. Although the devices are compatible and Nokia gave all the n800 users a CPU bump with firmware upgrade.

Will the n910 bring a faster clock speed on the n900? My guess is NO, for the next maemo device to have the same CPU specs as the n900 would put if behind before it was even announced. Phones are breaking the 1Ghz barrier these days.

Either way I have seen several places comment that 2010 will be the year of the smartphone, and there are going to be some pretty cool things out by the end of 2010. I wonder what we will be talking about in December.......

So make it a glorious 6 months then.

Make love to it, take pictures of it, make some "private films" for your enjoyment, then kick it to the curb when the next model comes around.

Nokia are pretty good at supporting their phones long term. Look at the Ovi store and still releases for older phones on Symbian. If Nokia forget about the n900 it will loose customers which in its situation (of missing the boat a few times of late), it won't forget about its loyal supporters. The majority of us on here a pleased with the N900 so we 'sell' it to friends and colleagues. Thats a better receommendation than any shop or review will provide.
I know Nokia have sold about 10 N900s just directly off the back of me. How many indirect sales I don't know.
maemo is new (to most). Ignoring its 5 custom base would be suicide.
Enjoy the n900. Lets face it who will keep it for much more than 12 months anyway before you want the latest bit of kit??

Yes, a great device. And.....it is/was known that Maemo 5 is/was and interim step. There will be (I hope) many more releases of Maemo Vnn, in the future.

My only compaint, is that the N900 consumes too much time. Because there no excuse any more not to check your mail, keep up to date with the blogs, stay abreast with what happing on the maemo talk forum etc. Because its right here in your pocket and not sitting out there somewhere on your desk. The N900 allows you to be "hyper connected" !

Yep. Which is why I don't blog, facebook, twitter, or any of that stuff. Otherwise I'd go crazy.
Strangely though, I get a strange enjoyment out of going offroading/camping out in the middle of nowhere and still being able to poke around on a forum occasionally.

Too much drama, too little attention paid to details.

The question is if it actually IS the same CPU like in the case of the N800/N810 was (I don't really think it's the case, if I had to bet on the CPU I'd say it's going to be an OMAP3630 - the timeframe is right for a 45nm CPU and the top 1GHz dog has serious juice/heat implications)

I am not expecting nokia to make M6 compatible with N900. And frankly, I could not care less...

I do care about the long-term vision on how maemo is going to be delivered. The excuse that future devices,M6 for example, cant be upgraded because of this or that does not enter my mind anymore.

If they manage to scare developers one more time, and they are succedding if you see the backlash of the high-profile people here, then I do not see much futurre for Nokia besides going back to selling rubber boots.
