any chance the easter-egg will be a Magnetometer? some people say it has one, some say it doesnt..and from all the videos online, nobody really showed the GPS..so im wondering..if it doesnt have it, i will be a bit dissapointed...coz i really want to get the n900..and i guess it cant be added via FW, right?

From what I've seen of the GPS, it doesn't have a super-secret compass display, so that's not why people aren't showing it. Just that Ovi Maps is boring to all these long-term Nokia bloggers who've seen it before on S60.

Polohové čidlo a elektromagnetický kompas má.
In English:
Yes, it has a position sensor and an electromagnetic compass.
So, that's why i ask...

There is a fair amount of reviewers who can't tell the exact delineation between accelerometers, gyroscopes, compasses and GPS. The unit most likely WILL show a heading (even the N810 does that), but that does not automatically imply the presence of a compass (the heading can be GPS/inertial based). Adding to the confusion is that many high-end devices do have compasses so people say 'the N97 has it, iPhone 3GS has it, then this one has to have it too, right ?'
