the N9 has a different selling point. had nokia given it the N8's sensor then that would be a totally different story, and a totally different and incredibly more absurd sky-high price.
Well, what I want is:

* Maemo Harmattan (not symbian, not Android, not IOS and especially not WP (**** YOU ELOP!!)
* Good camera (N9 not have it seems)
* NFC support (N9 has this)
* some kind of: AirPlay/DLNA (I think this is possible on N9 )
* some kind of tvout when I am at a place where DLNA is not supported. N9 has this
* And as open system as possible but not "to open" because that often means drivers is not optimized (or features not documented/supported) for the HW. (GLX drivers and camera drivers and so on)

I know this seems to be IMPOSSIBLE! Still I dont get WHY endusers wouldn't want to have similar? Again this is just about MARKETING! They could had sold ALOT just by saying all what I am saying above. But Nokia prefer to have zillion of device doing different stuff and thats soo stupid strategy. I dont mind if they had some differentiation. But on highend it should have everything the low/midend has. **** sake N9 was release 2010. Its midend device now! Why didnt they make N9 a nextgen N8 for the consumers!?

Ohh I forgot Elops ****ing WP stragtegy!

Well in the end it seems N9 STILL is the best choice for me. I am not whiner I just a bit dissapointed aboout the camera :-/ The rest of the device still seems to be a good device

I just hope we can "fix" some of the lackness by using fcam project OR Nokia add some more options to the camera driver to tweek more with the pictures taken
