I seem to remember reading somewhere that one can unlock some extra levels using NFC, there are a fair few web pages about it, e.g.: http://mashable.com/2011/04/19/nokia-angry-birds-2/

What I'm seeing here is the regular full version of Angry Birds (seemingly identical to the one released for the N900), as running code to initialize the N9's NFC components with no apparent use case to do so.

Real question is, what NFC functionality did the devs put into Angry Birds on the N9? Maybe they kept the enhancements from the “with magic” version, but this is not referenced in any user facing portions of the game…
Maybe (hopefully) they plan to bring some of the unique aspects of Magic, to this full version?
Though I imagine they'd be running away from N9/Maemo6x, now that this is ticked-off on their list

[QUOTE=cddiede;1140793]Strange how the new full version of Angry Birds takes SOOOO long to load (at least on my N9) after you click on the icon.

same here too, about 40 seconds from touch to main screen, by far and away the slowest loading app on my device

the NFC functionality (to ulock the next levels) is in Angry Birds Magic !
Re-read pls.
Re-read pls.
Watched it start up in the X terminal and it turns out that Angry Birds is initializing the NFC components and setting it to listen. This, coupled with some bad syntax (it just fails over without certain attributes available, no big deal) seems to contribute to the long load time.
