For a low, low price of $1,000 USD.
Eleven suckers, I mean buyers, have already bought one at the time of my post.

I bought my N95 (original N95-1) for about $800 (import) when it was released and it had vastly superior hardware at the time. There is no way I'm paying $1k for this device. The N9 is already a year behind in hardware specs. This is nothing but a sad rip off.
Please don't buy one from this guy. This is just making you aware of the rip-offs that are starting.
Stop this hardware nonsense. It's the OS that counts.

Wow. I thought the old adage was that a fool and his money are soon parted.
Seems like they misspelled "fool" - should have been "geek". I say don't buy.

This is just wierd. The N9 isn't even released yet. I would definately be wary of this, especially since the seller is from Kent, WA. See for yourself:

I liked this part 
"No returns accepted (contact seller if item is not as described)"
OP is unfortunately right N9 is outdated in terms of hardware, sorry folks no matter how "optimized" the code is it just lacks raw power of A9 or snapdragon dual core CPUs.
