Hardware keyboard, Video projector, HDMI, USB OTG, memory card slot, dual SIM etc Why not in N9 ? Every product is result of lot of compromises . Having all possible features makes product big ugly expensive clumsy batteryhungry monster that no-one actually wants to have.

In N9 superior industrial design and user experience got priority over many rarely used features.

I am type of person that would like to have all fancy features but them in real life do I use them ? As example in technical sense PAL/NTSC composite video out is history from time of analog transmissions and tube television. How many of N9 does even have such a thing any more ? I know that composite video out quality is really poor because it is analog tube TV quality and I don't see much of use for it, may be just demo on programming classroom. That's all true but would I use HDMI if I would have it ? I have couple of tablets, iPad and Android, they have Hdmi but I just have never used it.

It is just much easier to invent all kind of features that in real life are rarely used.
