Yet another video of Symbian^3- based slider Nokia N9 appears - read the full textWhile the name of the rumored Symbian^3-running Nokia slider (a.k.a. Nokia N9) is still a mystery, it's hardware and software are already pretty familiar to us. After all, the device appeared on numerous videos and images.

What more do you want, higher density screens just mess up the battery life. (this is a case with most android phones)

IMO 640X360 is good enough for this size, the only reason you would want more is to show off the big numbers...

Are u serious about judging a whole company because of its numbering ? For me I see its a better way of numbering than before and better categorizes their device to its functionality. For e.g. E series are business phones and X phones are meant for music .. Isn't it simple ot just too complex for u ?

This phone is going to be very useful when it's released.

U dnt judge a phone by a prototype :) this device is not meant to be shown to the public because some uneducated people would judge it in a bad way while still not putting in mind that it is not announced yet and still a prototype.

It can't be the N9, N8 is the last device to use symbian 3, in the N category

Specially prototypes are usually "blue tagged" to give of a automated "distress" call to the manufacturer if someone that is not supposed to have turns it on.

They use satellite tracking. Every single phone has a tracking chip with the phones serial IMEI number that can be traced via satellite.

Here in Sweden if you loose your phone or someone steals it and you have the IMEI number, they phone company contacts the manufacturer like Nokia, SE, HTC etc and they remote track where it is or they disable it, even in offline mode.

The only thing is that the phone must be turned on to found, cause the IMEI transmitter ship need some electricity to function, it has nothing to do with 3G och GSM network.

I think the "secret wipe button" is the camera button, since it got wiped when they pressed it. Otherwise, it's a nice phone.

By the time when html5 will come, I think Adobe will make the flash even more efficient than html5.
BTW anybody, Can we play games on html5 just like flash games and can we set it as screen saver just like flash (.swf) ??
