It's not 100% clear what chip it uses, IIRC a few logical guesstimations were done.
But the best way, is when someone has a N9 in their hands, & can run the necessary checks.
When i get mine I fully intend to answer as many questions as folks have....

They are already selling Nokia E7 for 299€ in Finland, which probably means Nokia is trying to gain market share with very aggressive pricing. Mango devices aren't here yet and volume shipments begin in 2012.

This means the Singaporean and Malaysian pricing for N9 might actually be possible in Europe too. According to IDC Nokia's European smartphone market share has dropped to 11 per cent, now being at the 5th place. For the 299€ price Nokia would still get pretty good profits for every N9, as the hardware components aren't that expensive.

E7 is a midend/bussiness phone that no one seems to buy thats why price drop. its NOT a phone for those intrestedd in android/iphone competitor.

Nokia N9 is hiend. if they hold that fantasy price we can for forget about software updates...

Finnish N9 availability site:
http://www.nokia.fi/tuotteet/kaikki-...ista-saatavuus

Yeah, nothing interesting there. Except in the source code:

Code:
<div id="buy-options" class="section">
<!-- Buy Now/PAN integration -->
<!--<div class="price-info">
<h4>&euro;299</h4>
<span class="terms">(inc. VAT)</span>
</div>-->
</div>
Price of 299 euros hidden by html-commenting multiple times! Same price can be found in all countries availability-sites.

But that's not all (I think):

We can also find list of operators:

Code:
<ul class="picker-items">
<li>
<a href="http://orange.com">
<img src="/NOKIA_MASTER_NOKIA_COM_5/DELETE_THESE/Skyway_Test/images/logo_orange.png" alt="orange">
</a>
<a href="http://orange.com" class="cta">Visit Orange</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="http://vodafone.com">

</a>
<a href="http://vodafone.com" class="cta">Visit Vodafone</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="http://www.three.co.uk">

<li>
<a href="http://tmobile.com">

</a>
<a href="http://tmobile.com" class="cta">Visit T-Mobile</a>
</li>
<li class="last">
<a href="http://o2.com">
<img src="/NOKIA_MASTER_NOKIA_COM_5/DELETE_THESE/Skyway_Test/images/logo_o2.png" alt="O2">
</a>
<a href="http://o2.com" class="cta">Visit O2</a>
</li>
</ul>
Orange, Vodafone, Three, T-Mobile and O2. And don't forget the "DELETE_THESE"-images!

This was mentioned earlier somewhere, I didn't bother posting as I was sure it was bogus
http://nokiagadgets.com/2011/09/10/n...r-e299-really/

But looking at prices that have been touted for 500/600/700/701* in recent wks.
And considering it's a direct sale from Nokia, maybe there's some truth to it?

Some examples (don't have time to find others):
http://mynokiablog.com/2011/09/10/no...ks-for-e22990/
http://mynokiablog.com/2011/09/10/no...ng-october-21/
http://mynokiablog.com/2011/09/10/no...-for-november/

Is that price for the 16GB? But wouldn't it piss-off the telcos & retailers?
That's $400AUD! The best retail price here in Oz atm is about $679.
Plans with carriers aren't clear yet, they'll of course be much less...

Maybe it's an Asian price, & the Australian price will be higher?
Consumer electronics are almost always more expensive here than EU/Asia.

*703's WP right?

*EDIT*
My bad, just saw some of the most recent comments.
Nice thoughts, & very nice find Ministeri!

A few inaccuracies, but fairly interesting read nonetheless, states much of the obvious

It shits me how the 500/600/700/701 were all announced way later than the N9, but looking like they'll be out before or at the same time.

Pretty clever new ad


Harmattan Apps
Looking pretty slick, may eventually be a better option than what's built-in, still early days.

LiveJournal (blogging app)
http://mynokiablog.com/2011/09/10/we...d-on-nokia-n9/
who explains that the app was first developed for Symbian then ported to the N9, with 95% of the code unchanged.
^ Does that sound right?

Apple V Samsung

Don't worry about addressing the DLNA point/Qn...

Thank-you.
Yeah i misssed that. I'm trying only to skim these sites as they otherwise would take up too much time


Well, about the transmitter (RX part), the qustion would be answered later on as the Nokia manager wasn't sure about the answer.

Bluetooth 2.1 or 4. The answer were simply that the specs on developer.nokia.com was the one Nokia Denmark would refer to. But as we have "learned(?)" the N9 will have the BT4 - either at launch or PR 1.1.

DLNA, i would expect N9 to be albe to stream vids, but the Nokiadude just said the using the 3,5jack or usb were preferable...
donno why!

apps, well the N9 does still use the qt apps as we all know so i dont think that this is the biggest problem - however i dont think Nokia will put too much effort/money in symbina/meego since windoze phone is coming. However they are creating apps which are very popular on android/ios. And locally (denmark) they will build apps for banking and the copenhagen airport - some of the most crusial apps that havent been made for symbian/qt - yet. I suppose it will be the same around the globe, but I must amid I dont know which apps are "missing" in aussie-land, us ect...

In generel, Nokia DK, were convinced that many geeks (TMO and other people) would make many apps - that may not be finansially a big deal, but because of the linux community benificial for very specified needs.

Furthermore, maps is something Nokia will keep developing and will put alot effort in so Nokia will have the best navigation "app" integrated + it's free. The recognised that Google maps had some great features but that many of thoose would be implemented in Nokia maps as well (fx public transportation lines would be implemented)

edit: I'm thinking of buying a black N9 and a afterwards use a soft cover (cyan) like this one
http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/nokia-sof...lue-p30618.htm

the cover is only about 1 mm thin.
