Blame the European commission, friends of the earth, green peace etc, for pushing for a standard in charging, all the big players signed up for it, in the future there will be just one standard charger for all devices no matter the manufacturer, now we have been set back lets vote no to the EU 
I hope nokia find a solution in the future to make it happen in any upcoming devices.
On the bright side in 2010 we wont need 10 different chargers for all the different gadgets we intend to buy.

This has been discussed endlessly on #maemo, and much smarter people than myself preferred ext3 (including Nokia, it appears). Observation of flash memory survival rates (nearly 100% in what I've observed) seems to bear this out.
I'll stick to ext3, thanks.
Not exactly up to date or reliable info but

interesting nevertheless
and from wiki http://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.p...zed_for_SSD.3F

Well, I don't think people ever wanted "charging over USB" functionality at the expense of OTG though.
Especially if I'm using the N900 as much as I think I will, with USB charging it means I can charge my device almost anywhere.

Possibly a very foolish question BUT who's 3g network will the euro version of the n900 run on if you were to bring it to the US?
