There is no public need for all that power just yet...
"The board itself measures 4.0 x 4.5 inches and includes not only the dual-core OMAP4 chip but 1GB of RAM and a plethora of connectivity. There’s WiFi and Bluetooth, HDMI capable of 1080p HD video, DVI, 10/100 ethernet and USB 2.0 (two Host, one OTG); you also get an SD/MMC memory card slot, serial port and audio in/out, along with various other expansion connectors."
I think the N9 would be nice enough AT LEAST with:
OMAP3640 - 1 GHz ARM Cortex A8 + PowerVR SGX530 GPU + 430 MHz C64x+ DSP + ISP
What do you guys think?
There is always need for more power! The thing with N9 is that it is a mobile computer wich mean it should do what your laptop can do but on a smaller screen. I would love to have the N9 as my only computer as I do not play any games, just websites, movies, and social stuff. And for that you need a bit more power then the N9 will have, so the need is there.

If Nokia releases N9 with A8 and one month later the A9, with better preformance and less power consuming, comes it will look bad. With that I did not say I'm not going to buy it if it comes with A8, it will take more then that to make me stay away from that piece of awesomeness.
