If I were to find an envelope with $700 in the trash, why should I spend it at expansys and buy a 16GB N9?

I trust the people here, which is why I ask so directly. I love a qwerty keyboard, but I'd be willing to "learn" to use a touchscreen one if people could please let me know some (non-fanboy) reasons why the N9 should be bought - while it still can.

Thanks

If only you were to mention your income, mortage, montly savings etc,.. we could put the 700 USD in perspective.

That said, I was expecting the VKB to be the greatest letdown. It isn't half as bad as I expected. Proof is I still can bring up the effort to reply to this post using it.
The screen however is the biggest disappointment to me, coming from the impeccable N900.

I d say check one before you buy. Then buy for other reasons but the screen.
