Am I the only one who finds the blind hatred of Nokia's new strategy on this forum to be completely ridiculous? Seriously, I feel like I'm reading a bunch of forum posts written by twelve year-olds who had their favourite Action Man taken away by their mum.

would be cool, if some kind of haptic touchscreen ist implemented in the new N9.
i mean, k123 said that even if there is no kb it is still great and not realy a need for it.
maybe because of this.

To be honest, I have no issue with voicing one's opinion about such things. For many people this stuff is very dear to them, and I get it. But assuming Nokia employees even browse this board anymore, do you think all the petulant name-calling and death-wishing is sending the best impression? Use your heads, guys.

if nokia's board did not believe meego could mature fast enough to achieve their stated ambitions, to be one of the big-three ecosystems, then they were duty bound to seek alternatives.
that nokia have, and will continue to, invest significant resources in our open-source linux OS of choice is something we should be grateful for.

i say this as someone who has zero interest in owning a WP7 phone, nokia product or otherwise.

how many people are here in this forum? lets say 1000.
so, the people who wants a hwkb on this forum are round about 990.
we, the people here, are not the mass, and nokia can not make money only with us.
If everything Koajwujwer123 and zehjotkah said will come true, then you wont need the hwkb. And if you say that you cant write on an swkb,
The only reason (imho) to prefer a hwkb instead of a (really good) swkb would be for coding, but remember, coding is beeing done by developers to develope apps.
Most of the users of a smartphone use it to write words,

i think the phone has an amazing video chatting app with which people can communicate with more than 3 people at the same time with text chatting as well built in (hint see screen where people are chatting with 2 textboxes ticked out of 3)
also web browser if i identified it right looks a lot more powerful than any Symbian or memo browsers currently in market .
also i think headphone jack is on top of phone (hint see video at end as well as early released 2010 leaked pics) also hdmi port is i think on its side :-) which is also viewable from video
