No. It is very impressive device in many ways, but currently it is not suitable for:
- SSH. It works alright but no hw-keyboard and small terminal screen estate make it less favorable compared to N900.
- No copypaste of any kind or selectable text in terminal
- Wifi seems ok, but not all enterprise Wifi solutions (Eduroam for instance)
- Internet is good, fast and smooth even if the browser lacks features (text selection only in text fields, and doesn't always work right, eg. doesn't let you paste)
- Not as many protocols supported as in N900
- Currently no Dropbox client. Haven't tried any dirty tricks with Fremantle one on Harmattan though.
- General sharing options seem to be ok
- N9 seems to be very tinkerable, but you have to relearn environment. Currently it is more closed by default.
- Lack of HW-keyboard with current copypaste options and small terminal window when the SW-keyboard is on make N900 much better choice.
