Sure it looks like a nice device.. just like the Sony Xperia Arc or any of the HTC's running Android..

I'm disappointed by the specs, features and limitations of the phone.

I guess Nokia decided "if we can't beat them, join them"

The N9 brings nothing new whatsoever
That! Right there!

This is EXACTLY what I have been honing in on and repeatedly pointing out--there is nothing compelling and different about this device that would make anyone, casual phone user or geek alike, want to move to an N9 from anything else. The Maemo/MeeGo people didn't want this. The iPhone/Android people won't abandon their platform for this. What's compelling enough to make anyone want to buy this? I keep asking, "What do you like this about this handset?" but none of the answers so far make me feel that this is an incredible device I must have over anything else out there.
