Who will switch to LUMIA 920, or consider buying it?
 
I will splurge on this one. N900 great phone, but corporate email did not exist, nor work and way too slow. The iphone was a good phone, but email reception was not that great as compared to BB. The new LUMIA 920 will offer the same security as BB, and great email interface. Sooooo, they got my dollars. Cant wait to splurge!!!

No, but there is about 2 % chance they I get a 820.

I'm definately buying a lumia 920, or other wp8 phone.
The n9 was my chance to shift from wp7 since that phone died.

I came to love the N9, especially the UI and big community with it's customisation capabilities, but can't seem to lose my windows phone itch.

I dont know how you can live with N9. I tried. tried hard, but despite everything, just couldnt do it anymore.

While the whole time I'm thinking... don't feed... the... troll...

The N9 is an awesome phone, sure, it's email client has it's issues, but other than that, it's fast, stable, has awesome tweaks to it, and the community is made of pure awesome. My only other complaint is the lack of a HW keyboard. But all the ******ed WPx phones that Nokia have released lack one too. Oh, and there is that whole "Microsoft are an evil empire trying to lock you into their jail." thing that makes me shy away from anything with their crappy (new) logo.

I won't be going that route, if my N9 ever dies, I'll probably just go back to my N900. If that dies as well... then it all depends on what Jolla does. If they don't release something with a hardware keyboard, and basically on equal grounds with what the N900 has (FM transmitter, pressure sensitive screen, etc) then I'll probably just end up going back to a 'dumb' phone. One that I don't have to charge for a few weeks at a time.

Given that I had a Lumia 900, my statement about that phone stands and it would be worded pretty closely to what you stated about the N9.

I will paint no rosy images about the N9. As a phone, it's great. Makes and completes the call without incident. For e-mail messages, it's starting to show its age. Browsing... passable but I carry a tablet with me always now. And besides... I can tweak my N9 to allow for free tethering. Can't do that on the Lumia 900.

It will allow me to bide my time much better than the Lumia 900. That's my take.

Priceless at this early hour :D

And I'm sticking with my N9, waiting to see what the Jolla release has in store...
