Not out of the box.

The N9, which will sell unsubsidized for the equivalent of about $670 to $760 for 16 and 64 gigabyte models...

Really Nokia? You better have good deals inked up with operators...

You know that the unlocked iPhone 4 costs less, right?

And you do realize that the benefits of real multitasking will be lost on your iConsumers masses?

And who's gonna make the apps?

Would have been interesting a year ago, now it's just another "me too" with aging hardware.

Far too many things on the N900 felt rushed and not well thought out, I suspect much of the same with the N9. Certainly wouldn't buy one until it's been out for some time, and there are some in-depth reviews, not the "wow look at how fast the menu scrolls, awesome" type reviews. Swype? Already have it, swype down, notifications, up, app list, sideways, more customizable home screens.

No terminal installed by default, lacking some of the features that made the N900 unique. The N950 looks even more aged in terms of hardware.

Only good side here is my N900 should start going back up in value.

I'm here just hoping that the local operators don't limit my choices to just the 16gb model, like they had done with some android handsets...

As someone who moved to the darkside (Galaxy S) after nokia announced the MS love in, I do have to say that the N9 does look 'quite' good, some nice UI touches.
I will say, that as someone who stated a hardware keyboard was a must, you do get used to the on screen keyboard after a while..
If it wasn't for the fact that Nokia have already stated that the N9/N950 will be the last Meego phones, I would be tempted - as it is, there just seems no point..
Man I miss my multi-tasking, Nokia really had that nailed to perfection..

Just like the benefits of awesome design and accessibility are lost on the TMO masses.

A) money has not been disclosed
B) when you read "equivalent of" you know it's a clueless analyst typing in the euro value without realizing how taxes in Europe work
