No compass no metal detector. Its already has been discussed on another thread.

Compass? I was imagining it would work by combining the FM transmitter and the receiver, emiting a signal and then analyzing how the echo gets distorted...

the n8 has a compass (magnetometer actually). the n900 doesn't. By the way I heard of a nice app for android - that is a tricorder (like the ones in startrek) using all the available sensors (luxmeter, sound, magnetometer if available, gps, and so on) to present every possible kind of data to the user. Do we have anything like that?
