That price is silly, you can get an ipad for that.
Given the dead end OS and dodgy looking future for the OS in general it isn't really future proof.

i can have an atrix or LG optimus for $600-670.
This is too much for a device made with aluminum.

as much as i hate the way things operate here in the US with all the ridiculous contracts and carrier locking, nokia really needs to start selling some carrier-subsidized phones if they want to dent the US market

Maybe the only reason that the price is that high is because this is the first 4 inch smartphone they made besides of the aluminum body and the qwerty board. =)

That awesome four row keyboard speaks business.
The familiar symbian user interface " "
The nice battery life " "
The WCDMA 850/900/1700/1900/2100 " "
The muted brushed aluminum look " "
Same for things like office integration. Business phones are dead. Nowadays, every phone has a built in office apps, I mean like Calender, calculator, or notes. Nowadays, any old smartphone has available office apps some way or another, whether it be integrated, Office To Go, or Quick Office. Any smartphone can do email and Exchange sync.
So, again, my point is that as a phone for the business user, nothing stands out against any other phone.
The e7 will have full flash in a update this or next month the n8 also.

1. microSD card slot
2. The old processor (ARM11) doesn't cut it for me! [Browsing will be a pain with it]
3. No FM Transmitter
4. No Nokia 2.0mm charging connector (I can live with this but still)
5. Screen resolution: 640 X 360 is not enough for a 4" screen
On the good side:
1. 4" AMOLED CBD Display (16:9)
2. Anodized aluminium build quality
3. 4-row keyboard
4. Good graphics chip (BCM)
5. Penta-band support
6. Good talk & standby times
7. Office integration support
8. Offline OVI Maps [Navigation]
So, in simple terms, I wish for MeeGo/maemo OS in a form factor of the E7 with few hardware (internal) bumps!
N950, will it be "the one"?
