As for the multi-touch chip ST32, it's very nice I would like and prefer resistive mult-touch over the Capacitive though.
Nokia is always using TI stuff i think (as far as i know of)
current TI stuff are:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas_Instruments_OMAP

I dont think they will go to OMAP4 at this time, that would be really cool, because i think dual core would really let a phone fly, now sometimes the cpu is just used completely and switching or the desktop is very laggy, this would be gone in dual core mode.

But they could get a faster OMAP3 now they are using a OMAP3430 (whats the difference between OMAP3420? same for 3630 and 3620). So they could go to the 3440 (65nm) or 3630 or even the 1Ghz 3640 (both 45nm so battery wise better choice)

just run the application manager update, or install a program and when it is installing and after that updating the list. the app manager takes a lot of cpu. If i dont want to wait for that (which happens a lot thats why i want multi taksing) and i press the dashboard button. Then i do really notice that it is really busy with something.

Same for if you really 'hurt' the browser by loading large pages.

If im right the current n900 CPU can go up to 1 Ghz right? atleast thats what it says on the manufacturer website.

But to go back to the point. Some people keep protecting nokia, saying they need to keep making new devices every day. but look at the iphone! it sure had a couple of upgrades but this proves you dont need to make 1000 of phones to make money! You need 1 phone (like the n900) and give it all the support you possible can to make it perfect! then fill the freaking ovi store with more then 10 apps!! (omg nokia hurry a little and attract great developers!) You can make allot of money if you have a good filled store (apple proven it).

I had the n95 and n96 before this phone. Both of these phone had terrible crap apps in the ovi store. Some of them were prised beyond the 30 dollars. People even who have not bought the n900 are getting pissed off because of this! The only thing nokia wants is making 1000 phones a year. getting money out of the pockets of their customers... more and more people are fed up with this and are leaving to other phones especially the iphone, who does the exact opposite.

I really cant think of why nokia isn't getting all these complaints about us customers. its really like they dont give a $hit.

I really dont care of not getting maemo 6 on the n900. But forgodsake! atleast fill the ovi store and get the freaking maps app to finnaly do turn by turn voice navigation! Why the hell is it still not there??

And why is there still no update of the ovi suite for the n900? Whats wrong with you people!!! i Payed 599 euro's for this device. i needed to even wait 1 months before the ovi store was reachable.

This is not the way you should support your customers.

I you guys may have noticed im very fed up with this! If there wasn't a good community like this there wouldn't have been anything that we could have done with our n900. Only scrolling the internet without a descent java support with stuttering video's. watching custom movies wont work because the lack of a good nokia video encoder. music is a pain in the *** because the widget doesnt work right. The phone function is a pain. mms is not supported. and fmms is crap and a standalone app. Maps is not finished etc. etc. support or not this needed to be fixed on release! Nokia is dumping phones on the market without caring how they work. look at the problems of the n97 and n96 (still a pain).

If in 6 months this phone isnt supported anymore and the maps app stil not finished and ovi store still emty. then this is absolutely my last nokia!

I allready said that after the n96. but had great hopes with this n900. but after reading all this im fed up with nokia.

The OMAP3420 has a smaller framebuffer.

OMAP3440 and OMAP3640 are off the table, OMAP3630 is likely.

Yeah, this is the planned obsolescence that companies force on you these days that drives me nuts. For once I'd like them to just sell me one device, and then encourage me to add options or something to it that generates a micro-revenue stream enough to allow them to NOT forcefully make me upgrade just because my other device is now obsolete. Just provide me with cool stuff to keep my current device going as long as I want, and when I'm ready, have something worth upgrading too. One or two steps worth of improvement does not justify upgrading for me. One or two stories worth of updates or improvements, now that's another story entirely.

Here's a pretty complete list of all OMAP microprocessors, but it's in Swedish (can you read Swedish numbers? ):
