If youre in no rush, wait 2 years and get it used on ebay.

If not, just go get one right now.

I got mine just for the novelty of having the successor to the N900.

However Ive grown to love it far more than my SGS2 or N8, by FAR.

Id say theres no real question. Get the N9 now, wait for WP8 Nokia line and then reassess. Thats my plan.
