Yeah it looks like it was posted on youtube today, and it seems like it is the video which was included in Maemo5/N900 russian language review on Mobile Review few days back.

Thanks for bringing it up in here too though, not everybody visit Mobile Review.

Review? More like a video of someone tapping mostly randomly on the screen for 10 minutes.

Gotta love 4:28 where he makes a selection (that gets highlighted) while jabbing the screen 2 times and it did even register the selection he was trying to make.

Can't wait till Nokia dumb resistive touch screens for GOOD!

Same thing happened to me when I tried the prototype. It's software not hardware problem. Ovi maps sucks on Maemo. Look at the video again at 4:28. Phone registers it after first touch and the selection activates before second touch. The slow response is due Ovi maps software not the screen.

What you are actually seeing is how slow, crappy and unresponsive the Ovi maps on Maemo is at the moment.

I think its quite responsive. Resistive screen has its benefits not least handwriting recognition. Nokia will be unwise.to dump it. IMHO capacitive is way too overrated, lacks pinpoint accuracy and needs skin contact.

The Video playback is woah ! Reviewer should have shown us camera functionality though. Cant wait to get my hands on one.Finally a smartphone for grown ups; thanks to Nokia and the Maemo community.

Good call... but I wouldn't just single out Maemo... For me Ovi Maps runs crappy and unresposive at times on a desktop browser and a fat pipe. ymmv
