Video is one thing, but this is also about docking this little computer with an external monitor.
To present anything N9 does on a big screen.
-N8 has HDMI for entertainment purpose
-E7 has HDMI for business presentation reasons
-N9 has no HDMI, maybe for design reasons but almost certain to reserve the candy for the WP7 version.
As far as video is concerned: in my case N8 saved the day when divx playback from Snow Leopard OSX + VLC was too shoppy. N8 provided much better decoding, colors and nicer subtitle rendering, no tweaking needed.
TV video decoding being limited to (Pana plasma 2009)

This article http://conversations.nokia.com/2011/...ia-n9-imaging/ just gave me a lot of perspective and respect in regards to the hardware manufacturing of the n9. After reading this it is really remarkable who the camera has as many features as it does in such a tight, snug, and elegant body. They explain that 12mp was too big a module to include and maintain the elegant design of the n9. So whoever is complaining about the camera and any other features such as hdmi, consider how that may have changed the overall shape of the unibody that is impressing everyone. Great job to Nokia!

Yeah I know what you mean like most people ask me how I deal with my clunky n900 and i said i don't mind it fits in my pocket and does everything I want, it's a mobile device to me more than a phone. Nokia is trying to appeal to the mass market which likes sleek devices as the trend seems to be and hence why the beautiful design that is the n9 formed.

Design is ok as a bonus.
If Nokia really felt out of options and decided to appeal mass market by design over features why they didn't release the
N950 as consumer device immediately and
N9 as media demo (vs developper) device to selected journalists 1nd bloggers first?
After a couple of months, a few online petitions 'Nokia bring the N9 to the consumers already, we don't need a keyboard' , the sexy device would be released right before iPhone 5.
Why not? ah it starts with an E.
I wonder if I would bother typing this nonsense if I had an N9 instead of N900.
