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.
I think you are missing the point. The device is clearly a child of N900, and is meant to sell and be for the masses. That is what the whole point of N9 is! It is supposed to attract the masses to what we love about N900, now harnessed under the hood of N9. Let me repeat, IT IS SUPPOSED TO ATTRACT MASSES TO THE USER EXPERIENCE THAT WE LOVE IN N900. (masses want monoblock device, not hwkb device).
