I believe there is a racing game in Bounce. It has a futuristic raceway. That has limited play, at least when I play it does.

Though Overclockk still slow. And the device will heat up quickly and running out of battery. I do not know programming to create a great game. Puzze the games and rpg. N900 to be made a special game. Rpg characters in the game is very small. Will still have quality games a year. Ave rise nybird nice but short game.
I'd still keep my hopes. Will make a nice 3d racing game.
I received a phone call is not made androidli. Samsung htc galaxy evo or.

People buy the N900 believeing because of the hype that it is the dogs bollocks but find out it isnt and get peed off about it and want to voice that but hey ... they have a right paying what they did for this device !!.

I must admit... people on here dont exactly help with the off comments etc.
The n900 WILL get better and better... it has too as it is fully programmable so just a waiting game.

@abill: what the heck is "fully programmable" man?
Even since the first Palm Pilot, it was already 'fully programmable'...

And the Sharp Zaurus line... those were linux based handhelds, fully programmable... it didn't get that much better, very limited 3rd party support too...

The key is market penetration... far enough to impregnate it.

I saw no adverts heralding it as the future of handheld gaming. I did a little bit of research and decided to buy mine based on that..

But yes, various things are in the works, but like i say, these things take time..

not every mobile is fully programmable at all and i am on about the OS as in the operating system.... no way is every mobile capable of being programmed with a different os.

That was never the problem...
It has always been legalities, licenses and commercial roadblocks that got in the way.

why do you keep going on about Linux because its obviously not getting the N900 very far so better to put a different os if it carries on like this, all we need is the missing drivers for the device and it can be done with ease.... for example windows?.

An incredible amount of bad assumptions cloud my mind when I read that passage.

Perhaps it's best if you expand a bit on that idea, before anyone replies/challenges it?

For example, where can we get an ARM port of windows (I assume we need to aim for the x86 desktop version) and how on earth do you plan to conjure up the necessary drivers...with ease?
