The N9 is already dead. Prices are cut in half now. That help sales, but most people rather get the Lumia 800 or the N8 instead. Judging by sales and popularity of Nokia phones right now, the situation is like this: 1 Lumia 800 2 N8 3,4,5... Some dead cheap Nokia dumb phones 6 or lower: N9 After Belle came, the N8 is so good that it altogether is the best Nokia, and hence the real Nokia Flagship. Most people have no idea of operating systems. They think Belle is some "Nokia Android" and live happily with the N8, taking beautiful pics and downloading tons of apps. Personally I have grown tired of Swipe. A nice concept, but ultimately flawed because there is no way of organizing things. Belle is so much better, and so is WP in the long run.
