I've been waiting for a successor of Lumia 900 that should have dual/quad core with around 4.5 inch screen, Windows 8 and HD resolution. But there is no trace of such device. Every day starts with nokia promoting stupid low end stuffs

Don't feel mad. WP8 has to be revealed first before hero devices come out. There is no point in releasing another high-end WP7 devices when there is little upgrade path for WP7. It would be a waste of resource, plus customers would be mad later on they learn their brand-new X phone cannot be upgraded to true WP8. MS might trick customers by labeling WP7.5+ as WP8 lite, but customers won't be happy if they know the fact.

The new hero device has to be high-end, so dual-core Qualcomm S4 is a reasonable choice. Screen size and resolution will pretty much be up-to-par with Android high-end devices, too. Really nothing to worry spec wise, it all depends on MS delivering WP8......

and we'll soon know.
