Secondly, it could well be a few months old and not what exactly what its like anymore.

Incidentally, a guy on thenokiablog comments claims a guy he knows (yeah I know..) works on the N9 and says the current UI is "much nicer".

Even so, this video was garnering a very positive response (look at the comments on engadget) at a time when positive responses in relation to Nokia are in very short supply.

I hope that not true as it would be one of the stupidest moves among many Nokia has made.
Have to disagree - announcing a successor to the N8 (as the N9 would be perceived to be) before the N8 is even launched would be highly counter-productive. Of course the situation would not have arisen in the first place had the N8 not been so delayed. The N9 announcement should happen once the N8 has actually launched.
