I like the swipe, but really, not for that money, price shouldn't be any more than the current price of E7 or N8 which is between AUD 400 and 490.
It is just another phone from Nokia to keep it going in the smart phone market and hence should be competitively priced and frankly, it is not going to much advantage over Galaxy S (not even SII) other than the swipe.....
I stand corrected though.
N950 has already an N950 CE image and N9CE is pending...

I am sure the prices will drop rapidly when people discover that it is impossible to connect to Android market/iTunes to download apps
But to be honest, they are pushing it as the best out of the box experience with all the quality apps you need and best web experience, and still Ovi is available for more apps, so it is not like they are fooling anyone. It may very well be a hit.I think I read somewhere that less than 10% of all iPhone users are responsible for more than 90% of the total downloads. Makes you think.
Whatever happens, one black 16 GB N9 is mine. She doesn't know it yet, but I think she will be happy when she finds out

That's not a MeeGo CE image btw, just a (failed) build log.

A more sober approach. Would this phone be a success in the homeland of fanboyism and bad-taste, the USA? If the answer is probably not, then this decision is simply common sense. In the rest of the world where people are already growing tired of iPhones and Galaxys, the answer to the question is it will sell OK.
Actually MicroNokia is PISSING on the Linux/Meego community in the US!!! This is a way to kill opensource in the US! and in the long run also european
and I think thats is ****ing most stupid thing they done so far
Still most to blame is Microsoft and possibly the carriers in the US
I hope US people fight this cause as an european I am on the openSource community in all countrys.
