Would have been interesting a year ago, now it's just another "me too" with aging hardware.

Far too many things on the N900 felt rushed and not well thought out, I suspect much of the same with the N9. Certainly wouldn't buy one until it's been out for some time, and there are some in-depth reviews, not the "wow look at how fast the menu scrolls, awesome" type reviews. Swype? Already have it, swype down, notifications, up, app list, sideways, more customizable home screens.

No terminal installed by default, lacking some of the features that made the N900 unique. The N950 looks even more aged in terms of hardware.

Only good side here is my N900 should start going back up in value.
