Have you ever owned a mobile device that had 1GB of DRAM? Otherwise how can you make such a comment?
Eventually it comes too, but the overly aggressive swap settings and lack of RAM make it happen too often.
remember, memory has to be continuously refreshed even when the rest of the device is completely idle. I imagine the comment (which is no doubt lost in time, sadly) would apply even more so today when talking about an increase of DRAM from 256MB to 1GB.
But hey, it's a small issue but worth knowing that increases in DRAM don't come for free.

Heh...nice specs.
I also heard the case is made from the most supple baby kitten leather.

Hi,
Audio via HDMI and USB!
Combo Line Out/Optical Out (_NOT A HEADPHONE OUT_)
OMAP4440 ... and the spec list from Eldar (if we could get 128gb storage from toshiba: http://www.toshiba.com/taec/news/pre...emy_10_598.jsp)
boom! realistically, if this is a portfolio smashing device, we need to see non predictable incremental hardware update. else its an also ran ...

I'm pretty sure that in the deep and distant past when the discussion of memory provision on earlier devices has taken place at t.m.o. (or maybe it was itt) a Nokia Tablet engineer commented that DRAM refresh power consumption is an important consideration - remember, memory has to be continuously refreshed even when the rest of the device is completely idle. I imagine the comment (which is no doubt lost in time, sadly) would apply even more so today when talking about an increase of DRAM from 256MB to 1GB.
I'd take an educated guess that 1GB of DRAM uses precisely twice as much power than would be consumed by 512MB no matter how it is "set up" (discounting the dynamic disabling of banked DRAM which is just too fanciful for words).
But hey, it's a small issue but worth knowing that increases in DRAM don't come for free.

Rumour has it that the N9 will be an upgradable device. Some said you can change the RAM and swap it with a bigger one, and it uses the SSD as it internal memory. Some says that the CPU of the N9 will be a quadcore as powerful as the core i7 and has a very powerful GPU built inside as powerful as the PS3 GPU. Some says that it is so powerful and fast, even the STIG is too afraid to challenging it in a speed race.
Some says all the above rumours are just lies. And I would say "Good on ya mate!"
