actually i kept quiet..i am still rather confused...so there's no such thing as NAND RAM right? since from what i read NAND is stores sequentially, not random access

yeah...i guess it would work...

i think someone mentioned in V2 that S3 will be backward compatible with most s60V5 apps

just got an email from Radiance..she says that the programme is delayed cos the shipment for the retail device is not yet confirmed....and the date is not yet set because they want to make it ASAP..since N8 will be official on early October in bolehland, i suppose it might be on these 2 weeks?

you really have nothing else to talk about eh?

yeah
just wanna clarify that since a lot of people here thinks that it's dead or whatever

Applications that are put from RAM into Virtual Memory is still a process, just that it's in idle state, not terminated. The moment the app is being switched to, the information on Virtual Memory for that app will be copied into the RAM again, and it will run as how it is before you leave it. That is how multitasking is even at your desktop lar, just that obviously desktop have way higher amount of ram compared to phone, that you don see this often. If you say because virtual memory uses NAND and we are using RAM hence u got the term NAND RAM, then every windows desktop is running HDD RAM already lo

and seriously, pls stop your 'godlike' arguements already

and btw, Virtual Memory is NOT RAM, it's merely a temporary memory for application to store their process session in case RAM is full

wrong, iPhone is not true multitasking because instead of the OS handling this part of the process, it needs the application to specificly code for it. A true multitasking would mean the OS would handle this part by default and the developer do not need to worry about it.

and like i said, the process info will only be moved out IF the RAM is full, otherwise it stays in the RAM

lol, I'm a 'him'..and why is there a 'it' somemore

Added on September 8, 2010, 4:56 pmthat's true for most people, but in computing world we are strict in what the specific term mean and what does it describe. and there is no such thing as NAND RAM

eh..that's your last post from N97 thread...and it doesnt suggest anything like that, or not from what i see...u sure that's the correct link? previously you posted a same link also i think...

about the part that he/she calling me 'it', it's a small joke that i can take..i just don wanna see people misleading people with self created terms

well, not all applications need to be updated constantly, in fact, some of it u can just leave it there and come back with the same session without doing anything. Even if apps runs at the same time, deep down, the processor can only handle one thread at a time. the way multiple programs are running in the same time is to have 1 thread per program and multiple thread sharing the CPU process time together, and since CPU can only handle 1 thread, apart from the thread it is processing, the rest of the threads are forced idle for a short period of time. That is how multiple task share a single processor.
So from how it works, you see that even running task are 'idle' for a very short time, maybe a few hundred clock cycles that we couldnt possible notice. Letting the program idle is not the same as quitting the program, as for idle mode, the program will still have all the sessions, whereby when you quit, it would be eliminated(whether saved or not).
Also, not all programs need to be be running at all time, for instance, facebook, twitter or email apps, we leave them running in the background right? So maybe every few minutes they will fetch updates/new mails from their respective server. Only when they need to update, their process is being called and run, other time, they are put into an idle state.
Extend from the previous scenario, let's say you are browsing a webpage and is using full ram now, the OS would just need to put the app's session into the virtual memory, and when the app is being invoke for updates, it just need to swap maybe part of the browsers info that is being stored at the ram, and run the process, after that, swap back. It's still multitasking because the apps are running at the same time, and it's automatically handled by the OS itself

oh...now i see...

agree...

with that range, they might as well put there:
"Please tie your N8 to the radio antenna for best performance"

This post has been edited by BBXiong: Sep 8 2010, 05:25 PM

lol i don mind tuning to that

no mah...cos u know, if they say 6 feet range, maybe signal starts degrading/go weak in maybe 3 feet, so if your radio is 5 feet away, u might not hear nice quality..so might as well tie the phone to the radio antenna itself to ensure always best quality...or you could just use the audio in feature in radio if it has it..lol



if they have....

lol don tell me u wanna suddenly pull out a long long retractable antenna in KTM and point the antenna towards the window to get signal meh...
damn embarrassing one ler...

let's not forget the sound crackling as well

lol..i don wan video with snow flakes..i rather stream video from phone using 3G connection

must as them to research lar..next thing u know..
"we have done research on our new model..it will not kill your sperms now"

radio ones sometimes have weak signal, or some of the their own equalizer setting makes the song sound rather 'different'

try using those FM modulators, you'll know that actually radio signal can transmit good quality stereo

quality doesnt have much to do with audio quality...mono = single channel, stereo = left/right channel
although in most cases you do need to have a very good signal quality to get stereo, i notice normally in my car i don get really clear signal, but at home using hi-fi radio, normally it's stereo quality one
