Yes, I got it. Don't know how, but you seen the devices in person - I did get that from your message.

It has no premium feeling.

This phone is not made from metal. The case will be made from Magnesium alloy (!)
Now that's quality right over there.
Great to hear. From the picture, I found it difficult to discern which parts are made of black (paint?) metal and which parts, if any, are made of black plastic. And if you say that the keys on the keyboard are made of metal as well, I will find it difficult to believe.

Sorry for sarcasm. I am not after premium feeling - I am after durability and ability to survive falls. But then, they may be two different terms for the same thing.

Thank you. Best wishes.

[EDIT] Seriously, I am glad to hear that N990 [made-up name for successor of N950] is going ahead. And that there are photographs of prototypes themselves, not only computer renderings. I am just an exhausted scatter brain who dreams of automagically synchronising MicroB bookmarks with Google Chrome bookmarks from laptop - even though dynamic IP and such make it nearly impossible.[/EDIT]
