OK today i played with both the 16 and 64 gb N9's for about 30 mins which was all i needed to realise what i needed to know.

The 16gb had 1.1 meego harmattan and i played with the menu structre as much as possible.
Neither were able to make calls or browse but they both had a full signal strength showing for some reason.

I found the swipe feature rather slow but it took a while to get used to the capacative screens as i am used to the N900 so i think a little is my own doing for the slowness.

Now a strange thing i found was neither could actually display cpu type or the amount of ram in the "about" section which i found rather strange, there is actually no mention of ram anywhere in the device at all so it is not possible to even know how much ram there is installed, ok we know it is 512 but would be nice to know.

The 64gb showed as having meego 1.2 harmatan and was very slow in comparison to the 16gb version this showed very much in my opinion,
and as the 16gb it was not able to show ram or cpu details only that it was a 1ghz cpu.

I am NOT impressed at all and one thing i do know is neither were anything like the video from the russian that seemed to be not only a lot lot faster but had a larger menu with more components.

The models on show were blue pink and black and both 16gb and 64 gb were also in black !! please note this as it is being said that black is only 64gb, not true.

I want to know what software version will come with the public release before i can be sure but if this is it then for me no way i will buy one.

My HONEST opinion is the N900 is far far better !!!!!!!.

Anyone wants to know something specific then just fire away.
