                ha..ha..what you have to say now nokia fanboys??? I remember those 'low battery backup,high system reqs for android etc..' Now it would all be fine cause it is nokia this time..there were times when nokia was the leader of new technology but now they follow others..market will be flooded with new and better dual core CPUs till nokia releases this one..

                              Guys remember this post from earlier "N9 video leaked" news ----------------------------------------------------------------------->>>>>>>>>
                              """The OFFICIAL SPECS of the N9 are as follows : 800x480 AMOLED CBD display, with Gorilla Glass and an olephobic coating, St Ericsson U8500 that uses ARM Cortex A9 dual core CPU+Mali 400 GPU, 1GB RAM+1GB Virtual RAM,12mp AF camera, FULL HD video recording, Full connectivity including NFC, 32GB internal memory, and all the Nokia Basics...My friend has 'contacts' at Nokia, and these were just some of the specs he E- mailed me...BUT he said it was the 2010 specs, so it 'might' improve, so I'm hoping the screen res will increase!""" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                              The current news makes me believe even more that N9 will be powered by powerful U8500 too

                                    Windows doesn't work on computers properly...don't expect it to work on phones. + all the limitations from the 13. century...best OS ever..you can even send files over bluetooth or have memory cards.Very high tech if you ask me.
