I know you are trying to support Euro tech, but they have failed. Its all Asia now.
Uhm... the iPhone's email client fails me constantly (needing a kick), especially with IMAP. Exchange worked ok often, except when needing a full reboot.
The N9's client -like I said- doesn't have copy/paste, minor setback for me (as I rarely use copy/paste). Otherwise, it failed me once when the DB was corrupted (my fault for drasticaly changing the server).

Businesswise, the iPhone doesn't have swype, hence I can't type with one hand. Major setback for me. iPhone's maps are all online and all Google (which stopped doing maps 2 or 3 years ago, Nokia maps are more up to date), then Tom Tom (we all know the stories...), luckily, I use Nokia here now, and it's all relatively well. Still, the lack of reception with the iPhone makes online maps a very negative point. I've got my maps saved in the N9 and no problem. Same with the 5800.

What else? Voice quality on the iPhone just sucks, grip of death, web browser can't handle ident authentication (and has trouble with some 4KB certificates). iPhone doesn't come with a native XMPP client, only gtalk and friends. It actually takes time to pick one from the store, tcpdump it, make sure it doesn't talk to anything else rather than the server you want to. Battery life is a pitty, even though I hardly use it. I mean, I could keep going, and I should say again that this is _my_ experience, and _my_ requirements.

I'm sorry to hear that your N9's haven't fulfilled you, but then again, everybody is different.

Yes - I support the Euopean economy because I live in Europe. Sadly, no more phones are made around here, so I'll have to settle with something else in future. I wish, however, that we lived in a different type of global economy where I wouldn't need to support any continent in particular.

Believe it or not, I have the solution to all your problems: Nokia Luuumiiiaaaa (or you could get an sgs3 and live a boring life ever after)

Jolla gets a mention in this article on the BBC News Website:

In case you haven't seen this nice tidbit, Jolla has employed the Lorn Potter (Qt sensors guy) and QML declarative team of Brisbane:

Very good for Jolla, and of course the talented people of Brisbane!
