Can someone really confirm this is the case? Link please!?

i want my dual-core and qHD screen because i am a gadget geek and don't invest in yesterdays antiques.
if that isn't a good enough reason, tough, i'm not very interested in buying anything lesser.

So even if Nokia drop support for this it'll still get updates as MeeGo develops?
Personally thats why I will buy this new handset.
I dont give a **** what Nokia will do with support as long as we have a community and I can tweek it.
If I want "support" I would go for some crappy Iphone or WP7.
N900 and Nxx is for the community who prefer "as open as possible" :-D

i wasnt asking what hdmi type-d was but rather if they would include it in this model, and if zehjotkah would be so kind as to ask during his meeting? if he were to also wonder about the FMTx

Mark Guim (the Nokia Blog) says, that the new device will be given to devs first and won't be available for consumers until some time after. Their 'tipster' has said that Nokia won't announce it at the MeeGo Conference, but he - as we all - hope the tipster is wrong.
Personally - I probably wouldn't buy N9/N950 if it was using single core processor. Dual core A9 + SGX543, thank you.

When the N900 came out other phones had faster processors, but unlike Android, Maemo is optified well
Yes it could have done with say 800MHz not 600, but it wasn't as slow as Android would be. I want a nice balance between performance and battery life,
and if it's well coded there may not be a difference between 1GHz and 1.2Ghz or dual core etc.
If there is a noticeable difference then yes, i'll want it. But i won't want it for the sake of a spec orgasm.
But none of this has anything to do with Ovi Maps
Except everyone keeps saying that all optimization problems will be addressed by the MeeGo collective and OVI Maps, one of the worst offenders on the N900 can only be addressed by Nokia and not anyone else. So if there is any chance OVI Maps for N950 will be as resource intensive as on the N900 then dual core would again be beneficial.

Need dual coar! Massiv multitasking FTW! Heavy distros, emulation, responsiveness under higher load etc! What fun is OC'ing a single 1GHz core? Titan knows what I'm saying..Oh and more RAM in the van for this man.

And if you think you're going to get fully optimized code like Android or iOS you're deceiving yourself. I stand by Dual core as a minimum.
