It's still a bit early to pass judgement. but when did that stop any of us?

I'm as keen as anyone to get my hands on the first Nokia MeeGo/MeeGo compatible handset as that's a direction I want to continue to develop in. That there has been no MeeGo handset stalled my interest in the OS, so it's a sight for sore eyes to see the N9 officially announced (I'm not inc the N900 or the excellent MeeGo DE/CE project ofcourse). The lack of a hardware keyboard sounds like it might be difficult in regards to developing on the device, as I'm someone who likes to open up Xterm, launch leafpad, and type a few lines in and test away on the device. Ofcourse no Xterm would be even worse though And Im not convinced yet about the whole 'swipe' UI, but im open to it as so many people are raving about it..

However I'm liking the blue color, i think I need me one of those The extra RAM is going to make a huge different to those of us who suffered with the laggy N900. 8mpx is plenty for a mobile device, quite frankly I'd be happy with 5 and updated camera software and image processing. And I'd like to support all the guys at Nokia who still believe in MeeGo by putting a +1 in the sales tally. I already have a Samsung GS2 for my everyday phone, so i don't need something I can't develop on - I'll give the N9 some serious thought after a hands on.

All this is assuming, ofcourse, that it's released in the UK market...

On the other hand we expect there to be a developer's device but there's no word yet on how to be eligible for one. It is expected to have a hardware keyboard but is apparently missing NFC - one of the areas I research into is wireless technoologies and NFC would be useful. But it's still not announced, nor do we know how to get one - hopefuly it'll be the same as the N900 where folks over a certain amount of forum karma got a discount - so it's impossible to compare until we know more.

If QWidget is gone I'll need to port a lot of my earlier projects to QML. But it seems that either device is still a compromise to develop on, I miss the days of the N95 when Nokia threw everything and the kitchen sink into their smartphones

f/2.2 camera is great! Can't wait to see FCam ported onto Harmattan.

Why A-GPS though? Ugh. I tag my photos with GPS and if I get this phone I won't be able to tag photos in countries where I do not have a local SIM card which is sometimes the case. Ugh.

Apparently they're saving the good stuff for the Mango.

Please note -- the N9 is not MeeGo-compliant!!

If you want to buy the N9 as a MeeGo development device, please don't.

The N9 runs a 'slightly MeeGo-compatible Harmattan', i.e., another one-device Nokia OS to be abandonded in a year.

So? Spec lists are never complete...

Ok, maybe we'll see. Also, Nokia could be preparing NFC-enabled media receivers for video also, as they have the Nokia Wireless Music Receiver (MD-310).
