[LIST]
[1]When someone's calling it's slow to come up, maybe 5 sec till it responds. it just rings on the lock screen or a blank screen.

[2]emails take a while to load. 5gb gmail inbox and a mfe account.

[3]medias take a while to load. about 17gb of music and 4gb of videos/pics, i dont even use it as a music player anymore. id like to move on to spotify

[4]lack of mms. fmms is ok but when i get mass texts from android and ios it sends it as individual mms.

[5]slow browser speed. even tried using google's dns.
1) It's easier and snapier than the N900 but still somewhat quirkier than most other phones.
Still, the N9 is a HUGE improvement over the N900 on answering calls.

2) I find the email experience better on the N9. It's faster, plus newsletters look and load way better on it. I have a huge problem with newsletters (containing lots of images) on the N900.

3) Videos and images load way faster on the N9. It's not even funny.

4) I don't even know if mms work on the N9. Never use mms myself. Why bother, actually? Why not sending the picture via an email?

5) Browser is a mixed bag. It's definitely faster on the N9 BUT the N900 has properly working flash player plus all the numerous keyboard shortcuts that make serfing a breeze.
So... internet on N900 is little slower but more "complete", if you get my grip.

^ pretty understandable outcome considering the 1GB ram the N9 has (plus the faster CPU)
