Oh common, why waste time if your device runs on a 680mhz arm 11? Yeah symbian dont need 1ghz to run, but look at the browser still lags like shit, why not release 10 meego device instead of symbian, n9 looks smooth as hell

      Why not Symbian Belle on this device? Eventhough it's not yet released but it would be better N9 will have Symbian Belle. Nokia should work on it.

                    i suppose "by August" means that August is the latest users should get this update?

                    so updates should start rolling out by July and every region should get them by the end of August?
