Go to the freescale website. There
is hardware acceleration.
Look man. I'm totally extremely annoyed about not having 256 ram and maybe a 100mhz or 200mhz faster processor just like you.
I will say so whenever I happen to talk to a Nokia rep. I will do what you are doing right here. I will f'n talk their ear off about why the f they don't even try to get close to what the other guys are giving us in ram and CPU power and when the rep tries to walk away I will follow him around to harass him to really punch home the idea.
And I'll do the same thing on the phone and in any forum I talk to a Nokia rep.
Does that make you happy?
That Samsung HD avatar is not helping your "I'm not trying to convince you to switch" statement.
S*** man. Can we start to get positive here. Let's think of ways to squeeze some more usefulness out of this N97.
Everyone email these guys that do ram upgrades for WinMo phones and ask them to do a ram upgrade for the N97.
I already have.

I love Korea and Korean movies and the way they compete with the monster China and the Wacky Japan. But this Samsung HD is just a non profitable experiment that Nokia wouldn't do and they will just sit back and watch what if any good will come out of it and they will incoirporate it in their next form factors.
You should give N97 a grade (a to f, f for fail) in each of these areas and the Samsung and then stop talking.
Form Factor
Social tasking
Sustainable profitability (balance between cost, marketing, sales)
OS (please keep in mind Symbian Foundation)
Third party software
Hardware (in comaprison to other smartphones only)
Services (do they got your back?)
Amount of equipment packed into one device
Build quality
Sexiness
Anyone want to add to the list?
