Setting it up - Loading contacts

Once contacts were in place and home wi-fi password typed-in, it was time to do what we best do - fiddle and fiddle until either one - the phone or you give up
Killer Features
The lock screen watch, the home screen, the black interface with cayan toggles, status bar, sexy fonts and that clock adjuster - this interface is the Mona Lisa of interfaces.
I will share more thoughts in coming days. Thank you guys again for encouraging me to buy this.
Have you ever used SIP telephony on lumia? Apple and google phones need additional app like zoiper to do it, N9 has an - to good - integrated SIP support.
Why use SIP?
Without additional SIP account you can use your landline phone number and rate at home via WLAN, PERHAPS around the world too, it depends... from your telephony provider.
After 2018 there is in Germany only VOIP telephony, SIP will be more and more important.

Yesterday I actually took my Black/64G N9 from its comfortable resting place on the shelf and took it into use for some time.
My son needed a spare phone and I lent it to him for a day.
So, the device had a simcard in it for the first time in almost 15 months, since I switched to Jolla. For starters, how many devices allow you to take off & insert simcard while powered on? No idea, but N9 sure is in that crowd, I did not have to trash my uptime of almost 200 days...
Now how does it feel?
Just lovely, it is very comfortable to hold, jus the right size, beautiful screen and responsive to touch. The haptic feedback is nice, no other device kicks you back like N9 when typing a message
Took some time adjusting to the fact that screen swipes sideways as on Jolla it is vertical... The transition animations when swiping an application close are absolutely beautiful.
I was amazed to find out that Nokia Store us still alive and you can actually install applications from there, somehow I expected to see "cannot connect" orsomething like that!
Conclusion; If I had no Jolla I would still be happy with my trusty N9, for sure!
Comments from my son; It's way too small and does not run Clash of Clans...

@elastic
Here in "my English speaking Germany" I can still browse/download Nokia store.
@juiceme
See? N9 is worth to use!
And I also have to say even the screenbis bigger the Jolla gets beaten by it.also (bigger screen, clash of clans? give him an elephantasteous sized Note or similar
)
Ah, and more: I do really like that sideways swiping of "desktops" in N9. Cannot get used to that only up/down of Jolla
And once again one more
@elastic
Are you already in open mode? Then just load ubiboot kernel and boot into maintenance mode with USB connected. All partitions will pop up on PC and you can do a full backup. Restore is easily done same way (if you screw it up).
