And I also take it you meant to say Swipe UI is far beyond iOS in ease of use? Or do you really like that double press of a button to see icons you could have seen on the homescreen as well.

People are saying that this machine should be more powerful. I don't see why thats necessary. 1GHz is enough to run the device smoothly. So i don't know whats the point of making it more powerful or adding a dual core except for adding more cost. In fact its the ram that counts cos there'll be a lot of multi-tasking.
I don't really care about games cos i don't play a lot of games except fruit ninja, so i'm not really fussed about not having many games.
The task I perform the most the a phone is to browse the web, make calls & messages, organise schedules, keeping reminders, browsing the web, using GPS and setting the alarm. I'm impressed by the way N9 handles these tasks so thats why this phone is on my buy list, instead of fancy schmancy super powerful android phones.

I will definitely buy this phone. Actually I already preordered it :) Black one of course
No specific information on prize or release day unfortunately.
I'm certain it does everything I need, and much more.
Would love to have USB OTG like N8 though, also the camera of N8 is the best on the market right now, but I know N9 will produce sufficient quality pictures for me. I still have my DSLR for real photography ;)
Maybe it's just me, but I have never understand the app hype with iOS and Android. There's few apps I would consider essential, and for the games, I can live without. Also I dislike the need to use apps for browsing the internet, a good browser with well made pages for mobile is enough. I know companies will notice this eventually. They just save so much time and money when they don't need to make separate apps for every platform.
Also the idea of jail breaking or rooting my new phone to make the most out of it, feels just idiotic. I want my phone to just work out of the box, I've paid hard money on it so I should be able to do what I want with it.

The N8 is a great phone, and for me, severely underrated due to it's specs. Technology evolves fast, if you buy a new phone make sure it'll be a product that'll last.

If this phone is appropriately price, I won't have any doubts it'll sell well.
If it undergoes development from Intel, I hope it's music player is on par with Symbian's own, or perhaps an improved music player. Now that would be a welcome addition in my book.

Ugly design although slim, no rounded corners, looks like a brick and the main page it`s a copy of iPhone`s interface. It has no personality.

I'm not sure how much of a trojan Elop is, but an opportunity like this isn't going to be scoffed at from both Samsung and Microsoft.

Guys, guys, everybody knows that Samsung is preparing to take over Nokia. This is Nokia's fault. I am absolutely sure that they will take over soon. By the way the N9 could have a big success, but maybe it's not enough.

If someone releases an overclocking utility, you could turn the N9 into a small gaming machine, though I doubt it's worth it. The standard speeds of the GPU would be regarded as the most stable.

Why radio is important and essential?
Because you listen to :
1) free music,
2) important announcements,
3) traffic,local & global news,
4) past time,
4) possible found long-lost friends/colleagues.
Radio plays such an important part in our life, and we can't simply live without it,and best of all,it's free,everyone wants it.

[deleted post]Mister Bond... Apple makes good phones, really gud.. gud specs and OS...i agree to that... you say Nokia is sinking.... let's say that's true as well... cz Nokia market share has never been this low...
Google's Android OS...well it's not really an OS either...it's a bunch of eye-candy rich features that hide the LINUX beneath it. Nyways it compliments the hardware of the phones decently...
Question - WHY DOES APPLE PAY PATENT MONEY TO NOKIA FOR EVERYONE iPhone it sells?
Also Apple and Andriod boasts about a virtually unending APP availability... Question - HOW MANY APPS WOULD YOU REALLY USE, MOST IMPORTANTLY "HOW MANY APPS DO YOU NEED?"
Less specs in NOKIA phones is noticeable, Question - HOW MANY CAN AFFORD A HIGH END PHONE? Let alone, what if the phone gets the job done? i mean what doubt do you have when N9 has been reported to run 100apps simultaneously?
Oh yea, we dont need to buy a bumper cover to avoid deathgrip, we dont need to jailbreak or special apps to transfer files over bluetooth, we can hook up our phones to any pc and transfer media/documents etc, no need of iTunes. It doesnt matter if we drop our NOKIAs cz they can withstand it. We can plug our USB drives or to our NOKIAs. Our Nokia's support MicroUSBs and have higher HSPDA speeds with amazing Carl Zeiss optics.
If you do not know to use a NOKIA or using it makes you feel irritated, well yes then pls move onto an iPhone or whatever you think that will make your life easier. NOKIA is for people who love to squeeze every essence out of their phones.
NOKIA USERS CONTROL NOKIA PHONES - RATHER THAN THE PHONE CONTROLLING YOU AS IT SEEMS THE CASE OF OTHER PHONE USERS SUCH AS Mr. BOND
