Welcome to the world of large, multi-national companies. I don't

distinction in Maemo when they made the acquisition.
Yes, of course I'm aware of the dynamics inside a huge company.
But Nokia is a technology company, so I

Hi,
The memory bandwidth to the N800 LCD framebuffer is 3 times slower that
the bandwidth in the N770? Is it really _that_ big?
Siarhei's calculations were correct, so, yes.
What is limiting the bandwidth: The OMAP interface, the LCD controller
itself or was it a design issue.

I think that making SAMBA a core (i.e. supported by Nokia) part of the

I disagree. There are tools for Windows

DVD content is MPEG-2 video, which the N800 cpu should be able to

Indeed.
What we really want is to fully utilize the display quality when

Hi,
to me, the relationship between Maemo's FOSS parts and Maemo's closed
parts are like the relationship between Ubuntu and its closed source
driver packages (NVidia, WLAN firmware, etc.). I would be nicest if
Maemo was distributed similar to that.

Not quite: you can run Ubuntu without any non-free components, but you
