If you are serious about turning it off for good, please send me your N9. I have some ideas for apps, but no desire to daily use a phone without a hardware keyboard so I refuse to pay money for an N9. I've stuck with my n900. If the n950 was available I would have purchased it in a heart beat and been working on apps this whole time.

btw, I think you make some good points, and I agree with Gerbick, you have handled the flames very well.
