Well,
I showed this N8 vs. 550D shootout to some camera snobs and even they were quite impressed:
http://thehandheldblog.com/2010/10/0...non-550d-dslr/
If N9 has the same camera module, polish somewhat firmware AND keep price on N900 level I am sold on day one.
Note however that those specs are impressing for today. If Nokia delay N9 for half a year there will be competition and this hardware won't be looking so good.

Well N8 is selling for 470 euros now and at the time N9 comes out i would expect that price to drop more. I wouldn't be surprised at all if Nokia's flagship, N9 costs ~600 euros.
I mean Nokia haven't even had real high end portfolio for over a year already and i would think N9 wont have xenon. Thing that puzzles me is how could N8 camera module fit to N9? Guy over MR did say that the camera would have AF still.
A9 core to me would be much bigger surprise than any N8 camera module in a same time something i would rather see than amazing camera.

omap4 would be a good strong move for market dominance amongst the tweakers. i think that 64gb is gonna be on point, i would like to see a microsdxc slot as well ... hdmi audio out, and usb audio out as well as LINE instead of merely headphone out. higher voltage swing from the DSP. anyway i hope that we get some info, we got a tear down a few weeks ago and then nothing, not even a clip of it running.
and a compass ... (i almost missed out on the N900 because of this) however the keyboard won out.
omap4, 1280*720 CBD, 1gb ram, 64gb storage + XC slot to start.

my dream :
1.2Ghz A9 dual core processor, or even Morrestone, or (let be fool) quad core A15 at 2.0 ghz
1 ou 2Gb real RAM (not 256 mb + swap)
SGX450 graphics
64gb internal memory
microCD slot supporting new XDHC card (up to 128 GB !!)
MeeGo tweaked by nokia (with nokia tools : ovi...)
4.1" Resisitive but multitouch screen (like Stantum one) in 1280x720x32bit CBD
bluetooth 4.0
open GL 4.1
3G, 3G+ and 4G
Wifi N
IR (for some good remote control apps)
frontal 2mp webcam
rear full HD camera (at least 8MPx)
full QWERTY keyboard witt spaced keys (as on proto)
no button or holes on the face, a full black flat surface
alu casing, or baby skin (you know, this soft plastic, like on 5800's rear)
dolby surrond speakers
micro hdmi, micro usb (with charging, host, and OTG), and Jack 3.5
quick access physical keys for power, +/- and camera
a cache for the rear camera with auto on function
xenon flash + led one for some cases (like prolunged video taking or even torch app)
double sim support
removable 4000Mah lithium ion battery
design alliance between N9 proto and second nokia U project draft (http://www.journal-du-mobile.com/wp-...ty-nokia-2.jpg) because i like the design and the speakers holes with usb dissimulated in.
EDIT: and i forgotten : gorilla glass screen, to be scratch proof and not need an ugly screen protection
PLEASE DO IT NOKIA, i would even pay 800$ for it if it exists...

That spec would cost much more than $800... the 4000Mah battery alone would be at least 100$

Allllllll I trully ever wanted, was a device that could natively play a 720p .mkv file... SPECIALLY with a massive storage of 64gb+32gb, omg that's orgasmic, lol. I could just imagine, with HDMI-out, watching 720p files on large screens, just crazy.
