After reading jk's excellent review, a fear of mine was brought up: that N770 could be slow for multimedia purposes, specially video playing. I had the impression an 200Mhz ARM CPU isn't quite capable of decoding and displaying video at full-screen at such a high resolution by itself. Will N770 come with some dedicated video accelerator/decoder? If so, what about the drivers for te X-server? I also read that N770's bluetooth will not broadcast it's address for seurity reasons. As noted in the review, this might make it impossible to write drivers for existing bluetooth devices. One of my hopes was to get drivers for the ThinkOutside BT keyboard working in N770 (though I'd probably have to wait for the real hardware to be released), but this scared me. Is this restriction set up in ROM/firmware (so it could be overrun) or is it some limitation of the BT chipset itself? Jeferson Lopes Zacco
