      N97 has a lens cover that scratches the lens and is slow because it has wayy to little ram. Symbian was never meant to be for high end touch screens.

                    CC, 22 Sep 2009Hi Jack, You should research this a little more. If you lo... moreHi CC, if you've noticed those very clips, you will also notice that the operator is not exactly "touching" the screen, he is "pressing" the screen, the same way we do it for the 5800 or the N97, and obviously not the iPhone. In fact, that very fact brings a world of difference between the resistive and the capacitive touchscreen technology.

                                      Anonymous, 24 Sep 2009Maemo 5 Hacker Edition will be availible even for the first... moreThanks. My main concern is application support. Most applications in the future, as I see, will be Qt based. And this phone is mostly GTK (or something close). So... in the future, the N900 will need to load both engines to work with all those apps.... by looking at the free memory available (see big post below, NYC store), would that be a concern?

                                        I just went to the NYC flagship and played with the n900 for 5 mins (had to get back to work).

                                        Can report the following facts based on whatever firmware they had:
                                        - with only the following open: photobrowser (no pic loaded), calculator, xterminal, web browser with cnn.com open there is 5MB free physical free out of the 256MB
                                        - with no apps open, there is 30MB physical free out of the 256MB
                                        - device feels solid, nice heft. very good build quality. Barely pocket-able but can be done
                                        - screen response good, no complaints
                                        - keyboard ok, maybe not as nice as the E71 but could get used to it
                                        - screen quality good, crisp and vibrant
                                        - UI design a little quirky as there's alot going on but shouldn't be a problem after you get used to it
                                        - camera response ok, comparable to N95 reponse when taking a pic
                                        - feels like a real gadget, more stuff to play/interact with than iphone.
                                        - GUI response is very good, no lag when the apps are open. OVI maps took over 20 seconds to open though. Felt a slight lag when opening apps for the first time (same as you'd expect from your desktop)

                                        initial response is good would pre-order if I can get a clear idea of battery life, if it can't last a day with average usage then its a no-go for me.

                                        To put in perspective (to assure you I'm no fan-boy), my initial response of the n97 at the NYC flagship was horrible. screen quality horrible, keypad horrible, touch screen response horrible and UI design disgusting. Form factor excellent.

                                        Nokia definitively have an iphone contender here if the battery holds up.
