N900: Juggling heavyweight tasks

The N900 isn't just capable of multi-tasking, it can juggle even the heaviest tasks. To prove it we open a flash-based website, an office doc and the music player and switch between each. Plus we perform a few other tasks that show the N900 behaving like a proper mobile computer.

the best PC-like phone!!!!

My N82 is pretty good. Nothing compared to this beast, though.

Technology get better... wish we could say the same about humans.

OMG! no one can beat this phone!!!!!!!

@doomdiglet with the N900's touchscreen i can wipe of dust specs without having to lock the screen but at the same time it's pretty much effortess to trigger a click, and AFAIK there are resistive muitouch screens out there (but of course not on the N900)

[TiagoTiagoT]

Yet it somehow almost crashes if you try to instal!/uninstall somthing with HAM and browse the web at the same time....

After using the phone for few months I really liked the phone but I hate the fact that it does not have any proper app store and it is not supported by the Nokia PC software...

But as a phone its great...

@Andraeseus everybody knows that this video is speeded up. But trust me, it's really fast switching between applications. They did just speeded up the movie to skip the gaming parts where the original would be the double. So it won't be the classic 30 seconds. Trust me it's fast ;D

Hey doomdiglet,

Thanks for taking the trouble to explain to me. appreciate it.

So iPhone is a capacitive touchscreen right ?

[doomdiglet]

@nismo444 In a nutshell, capacitive touch screen allows true multi-touch while resistive touch screen does not. For further info., You're required to push a little bit when operating on resistive touch screen while you just need a soft touch on capacitive one. However, capacitive touch screen won't work if you're wearing gloves or use a normal stylus. Hope my explanations are useful and simple enough.

[Andraeseus]

This video is disingenuous. it's suggests the n900 is faster at doing all those things at once than it actually is. The video has been sped up. and the n900 is fast but not that fast

[nismo444]

what is resistive over capacitive touch screen ... anyone care to let me know.

Thank you !
