Well.. without keyboard it is useless for me, even this device will have decent hardware... it looks like a car with nuclear engine, but without steering wheel =\

Arc?? I would say it's SGS2. But yeah, I sold the SGS2 due to lack of hw keyboard and dodgy multi-tasking. I'm writing this using hw keyboard on my N900 and I love it. Especially ctrl+c, ctrl+x, ctrl+v, ctrl+z etc. One of the best things about the N900 for sure.

from that link...
«[...] subsequently marketed by the grantee [...]»
distributed freely is not a market as there is no price payed by the receiving party and there is (most importantly, maybe) not stipulation of a performance the device should / would fulfil.

stick with it: freebies don't justify a FCC registration

Please, stop. Don't use this useless rethoric. A communications device, to be used outside it's own development enviroment, needs to be FCC approved is US. Simple like that. If Nokia plans to give ONE phone to an american, it needs to be FCC certified.

Which is why I don't have an Android.

I can upgrade my phone now, and on my contract (which would require pay-in for N8 or E7) the only qwerty-keyboard + GPS options are E72 and C6, both Series60 devices :-(. And this is for my wife, who has been spoilt by keyboards on other E-series phones.

I may settle for C7, but only because it isn't ancient.

you certainly are a geek
shortens the (already miserable) battery life
one more thing (next to the charger or DC-11) to drag around
one more thing to forget / misled when needed et cetera, et cetera, et cetera...
no thanks, rather .7 mm more & no additional battery use (except @ night / dark light, when it gets backlit) & always handy

and... what if you don't have a pocket in your shirt?

well this last discussion is in line what I've heard from Nokians prior to Jessie's Girl. Dali (the leaked N9) was scrapped and Lankku would be the MeeGo device. I was devastated by this news when I heard a while ago, because I really want a keyboard. so you can imagine when Jessie's Girl appeared in the video, and suddenly Dali was alive again. I do believe Koajwujwer123 is telling the thruth. better components but lacking keyboard is the worst case scenario for me.

I do like the swiping gestures (smells of Skillman), and I'm glad the multitasking from m5 is there, so for those that don't spend 90% of their time in xterm or khteditor I'm sure it'll be an epic device, but it'll be a tough call for me.

SGS2 beats Arc in everything.
- 1.2GHz dual core Cortex A9 (I overclocked mine to 1.5GHz!) (Arc is 1GHz single core Scorpion)
- 1GB RAM vs 512MB on Arc
- 4.3" SAMOLED+ vs 4.2" Backlit LCD (ARC is WVGA res. Not 720p)
- Can record / playback 1080p videos (ARC does 720p)
- 16GB Internal vs 320MB on Arc

Hardware wise, nothing beats the SGS2 yet. I hope N9 slaughters it.
