I'm sure Intel won't cut it either, PCI Express speed is limited, and RAM woudn't catch up with simple computation speed. Find a better algorithm.

By this logic all RISK architectures are very limited, but they can compute. Parallel architectures have to be seriously limited anyway, you just can't access 100Gb data with 1000 parallel processes at the same time.

Linux isn't just its kernel, by Linux we usually mean some distribution with most utilities readily available in packages. I can't buy a mobile device in the shop and install working Linux distribution without hacks, it feels wrong.

Mobile is where innovation happens today and Linux has almost no presence on mobile devices (except all major mobile OS using linux/freebsd kernel). It's a stagnation, not innovation.

This is just a speculation, Windows Phone isn't showing any significant sales figures and I doubt it ever will. Where is Windows Phone better than Android and iOS? Nokia is making money selling cheap phones based on the decade-old designs a

Home button is a major inconvenience on an iPad for me, I just never remember on which side it is, I would be totally happy if its replaced with a gesture. On an iPhone its a whole different story.
