Whilst on charge the value stays locked at 600/700/800/900 depending on the kernal image used.
My assumptions then are that the BogoMIPS are a roughly direct representation of MHz and that what this value represents is in fact the current state of the proc.
Please correct me where I am wrong.

why will the life time of the processor be halved . as long as its stable @900mhz its not like its running at 100% all day long
if you to run a stock processor all day at 100% that would probably shorten its lifespan too .
i bet most people dont use 100% cpu for more than say 10% uptime a day

Anyone have an idea why flasher is saying this to me when i want to flash the kernel:
Suitable USB Device not found, waiting
help
im using this command:
flasher-3.5.exe -k zImage-900mhz -f -R

Use the above or even watch cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/stats/scaling_cur_freq .

I ran Conky on my stock N900, watched it idle at 250MHz, plugged in the cable, and after it jumped up to 600MHz until I dismissed the connection choice menu it settled on 500MHz. After I disconnected the cable it dropped right back down to 250MHz.
This seems like it could be troublesome with OC, since I usually tend to charge my phone overnight, probably for longer than it needs.

It seems that most people after flashing one of the overclocked kernels onto the device gets "Version: Unknown" listed in "About the product". This is however not the case for me (I use the 900ghz image), and I wonder if this could be due to me using fiasco-flasher on the device instead of the Flasher-3.5.
Not important, but just a little bit interesting.
