Check out this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uxjsUMWTkUc, It shows some real multitasking on the n9 he is running 12 apps as you can see then he closes 4 then you can still see 12 apps so he was running 16 or more apps and the device still seemed very snappy and fast barely lagging.

Nokia N8 (Anna) vs N9 video quality comparison.

not bad at all for a pre-release firmware!

anyone know if theres a screenshot app, as it as no KB I presume its not like on N900

There has to be, in fact I know there is, I saw one of the conversations.nokia.com guys talk about experimenting with that application. (Ian)

Those guys aren´t too skilled at anything other than blowing hot air, so it has to be pretty simple to use. He mentioned that the way it worked was that you pushed the capture button and then there was a time delay to allow you to get back to what you wanted to show.

It was in this post that he commented:

His reply is currently on page 2 of the comments, Ian Delaney:
"OK Nick. Yours seems like the best answer so far. There's a challenge for some views - the screengrab app basically lets you set a number of seconds before it grabs. I haven't got some of these things.

And also it's proto hardware and software so things might or might not be available right now.

We'll do our best, though. "

Atleast OS, UI and multitasking are better on N9. And that's the most important stuff for me.

+1,000

and camera too i suppose

Everything except all user aspects. N9 have Better video, better foto, better UI, better multitasking, better sound, better reception etc etc - and - N9 is much much cooler.

That's because the E6 is reserved for the small but cooler percentage of the population where operators have no saying in any case

Playing my typical devil's advocate here... but better multi-tasking is useless if the apps are all unfinished or unsupported.
