I have just found out that the NFC support the N9 has is severely crippled. It does NOT support SWP.
NFC in Nokia N9 Won’t Support Mobile Wallet or Payments
Therefore, it is essentially useless. I had said I was going to buy one next September in Oulu. Not anymore. What a pity.

Personally I don't think it is wise to use a cell phone as a token for the payments.
Think about it: how many times a day you take out your self phone to talk, text, plat, browse, etc. Now, how many times you take out your good-old-wallet and the card to actually pay for something?
It is far more easy to loose your cell phone than wallet.

you have a point thats probadly why it doesnt have support yet. They know the security issues is not yet solved. I dont think iphone5 will have it.
however for be an disrubtive device it is bad. I would mind try pay bus/train etc using nfc instead of tagcard that I am using on train now.

And in any case, I disappointed by absense of arrow keys - to repeat last line in shell, moving cursor left-right fast... At least I didn't find the way to do it (may be some old CTRL-... may do a trick but this is three press sequence). After I do error and shell responses I should type the whole command again...

Don't think so, at least I didn't found. Anyway, the difference is subtle, in canvas and a little button shape. Not sure about layout, but need to say that I remember I didn't do backspace errors - it is then I press some key instead of backspace.

I asked a direct question and I got a direct answer. But board is RX-71, cpuinfo shows it.
I said "widget" but I assumed "shortcut", sorry. I mean - the place where I can keep my selection of applications to start... just for fast search instead of browsing a whole application list. Personally, I think one screen is enough and I like the fast switching between running applications more than a couple of "home" screens.
(Flash Player):
They confirmed that it may be possible to do in another browser and Nokia is in conversation with Adobe. Translation - Adobe wants too much and FP takes 100% CPU while plays animation.
Just lawyer style disclaimer. N900 microB hasn't it and it seems there is a reason for resistance and M$ may just add a reason for resistance.
I went to "Settings" and somewhere underneath I found a last position named "Development mode" and pressed it. N9 started downloading 20+MB and after it finishes I got "Terminal" application. Button shaded after that.
And Nokia people confirmed that each device can be turned into developer mode.
Not sure about DRM disabling at all... didn't think about it before your comment
EDIT (Addition): N9 NFC can be used for switching ON handset and another thing like this. John Loughney from Nokia touched handset and N9 and explained that this started (and completed?) bluetooth pairing.
And he said that it can be used to transfer photo to not-your-girl at party [and be sure that there is no consequences -- my interpretation]

youre soo wrong about "no more meego" its not written in stone! first of this depends on country. second IF, with big IF, it sells well even with MrFlops FUD they MUST change. No damn stokholder would accept to kill something that makes profit for them. however I see this is a big problem because of:
1 N9 will not release until end of september that means they investemnt in meego will not be seen until Q4 and Q1 2012 they introducing wp7
2 we fight 80 million EUR marketing of WP Fail what will N9 have
But about support there should not be that big problems cause now both symbian and meego is using qt that means its WAY easier for them to make updates. this was a difference in n900 that uses gtk+ as core UI.
but for once I agree with jo21 its up to us who beleaves in real linux! do we want meego to succes start marketing the damn thing **** MrFlop and the board they will not do it they just old stupid men who hasnt guts enougth to think NEW!
