With Mango around the corner, let's see if things pick up.
Let's face it it had better pick up or Nokia IS dead !.

The reason i asked about the contextual search is cuz with the shitload of n9 vids i've seen, the quick launch has different icons. Some have search and some messages etc. It seems random/customizable
It doesn't look like Nokia even knows yet. Check out the quick launch bar description at the bottom of http://swipe.nokia.com/design/. The description doesn't match the picture.

What are you working on btw? is it going to be open source?
Do you mean, why did Nokia loan me an n950? If so, I'm on the hook for porting the open source Sudoku clone Tomiku.

Bummer on the QString bit
Yeah, kinda lame, but this QML stuff is so cool that Python might just start taking on a background role. See thp's port of gPodder for a great example.

iIgger bummer on the fail of facebook on events page.
I saw n9 demos they were a bit apprehensive to show facebook in general, not a good sign i tihnk. Hopefully it'll all be ironed out pre sale.
Have you not seen Nokia's out-of-the-box Facebook client? Well, let me give you a peek:

How is vcard support? Nokia always did decently here imo.
Yes, this tradition has continued with Harmattan. All the usual import/export abilities are here (net, file, bluetooth, email, sms).

How is the file manager?
Nothing native yet, but I'm guessing this is one of the omissions that will be there at launch. Not sure though. On a side note, someone has already ported Midnight Commander.

It's the first retail availability (pre-order) I've seen for the U.S.

The day you can connect a USB memory to your phone, you realize that you don't need a computer anymore for a lot of transfers. Not to mention the endless possibility of hardware extensions without the need of a proprietary connector.

How often do people transfer things through Bluetooth? Not very often.
I do it every day, sorry. There is no quicker way with a Gnome desktop: select the file and "Send to..." in the menu, chose the device and it's done. No need of a cable or of a specific application.

I have exactly same usage of bluetooth than you.

Also, when you connect the device via USB to your computer, the address book is shown as a folder with *.vcf's inside, free to copy, add, delete etc. via the computer.

I am. That is the reason why I have so few posts here. You should do the same. Just wanted to tell you to grow up and discuss tech as real techs.

Why don't we both stop posting and the community would be much better.

N9 will be great

Let me say that again:

If we want to scrub, we'll scrub.
So I take it does not have scrubbing built it by default

So how accurate is seeking music or a video clip then? With those very narrow lines, I'd imagine it's a hit and miss. Kinda weird they missed that considering all the attention to detail.
