I honestly think that IF the UI is as good as it looks on all the vids i have seen then this N9 is going to take the world by storm.

As long as it comes with at least basic functions and able to make calls AND sms AND mms and can handle email, skype msn and other chat, is capable of networking and internet connection with good browsing then for sure it will take off like a rocket UNLIKE the N900 did.

Browsing is fast and intuitive.

About UI looking good on videos, N9 is very smooth and easily swipes and the function of pausing (in some instances) apps seems to be great and makes the N9 capeable of having alot(!!) apps running in the memory without it being less smooth.
The classic swipe shown in vids with a video running and then swiping slowly away from the vid is 100% smooth and fluent even though you have many apps, pics or whatever runing in the background - the same applies with games you are aotu-pausing when swipeing.
In the test I did I had at least 10+ apps in the background which probably will match (and is probs more than) my average daily use.

The screen quality is also very important and even If you are a Samsung G 2 user the N9 may be on par - and I saw it in sunshine.
Camera (which is important for me) is very fast and autofocus seems to be great - however I havent seen the pics on print or on a pc monitor, but from the N9 camera pics seen around the net it will probably fullfill my needs.

Please STOP comparing things that are black and white and after all... this IS indeed a Nokia related community and you will only get shouted down for your posts in general.
If you wanna talk iphone then please go on the iphone forums.
