I I dont know who JKK is but he sure has zero background in maemo OS and it clearly shows. It is definitely going to have a very steep learning curve. But after u get to use it a couple of days... i think it is a very good device for newbies.

Wish I could have tried it out longer but there was few people behind me and even though there is like 20-30 N97s, the store had only one N900 which was a prototype as one worker told me.

Thanks

I forgot to test double-tapping to see whether it zooms at the right place, but nipple twirl worked better than I expected, no lags. Form side everything feels solid except for the stand, it feels cheap and fragile or maybe it's just me.

This is the first video I have seen were the device had the n900 label on the front. I don't know if that means that this is a production model versus a prototype, but here it is:

Let me know if they say anything interesting in the video...
