OS2008 on n800 - Nice Job

Hello, Been playing with the beta. Looks awesome! Great work... the changes to make the GUI fit the form factor are very very nice... The development of the GUI over the OS releases would be a good case study for some Interaction/UI students. :) Cheers -- Nick Loeve __

Mike, its the OS2008 on the N800 faster because of software redesign or has the hardware been reconfigured by means of a different software setting to run at a higher speed than OS2007? I would assume the former but I am not familiar with the details of the N800 processor. Best Regards, Jo

I believe the "limiter" has been removed and the N800 can now use the full CPU. OS2008 has some efficiencies which let the CPU be used as needed to maximize both performance and battery life... much more so than in the previous editions. On Nov 27, 2007 5:07 PM, Acadia Secure Networks <[EMAIL PRO
