Haven't really been lurking here since my N900 craze faded, but now N9 seems to renew that excitement and must-get feeling! (Although granted I'd much rather get N950)
I had some concerns, mainly Adobe Digital Editions and Kindle support, since I read a lot on the phone, but I hope those would work through Dalvik? Other than that I'm not overly worried about lack of apps and since I do Qt for living anyway I'm itching to make a little something myself if the need arise and somehow find the time.
Now release that baby already!

However, it also says the N9 will be a good sale in the (christmas) holiday season... So "End of the year", as Elop stated... I don't want to wait until November for this thing... what's up in their f***** minds?
There's no way it's not releasable by then, there'd have to be artificial delays involved.
In which case I won't buy an N9 or the following Searay.
On to a WebOS & Android ph for Xmas, and a WP7 (non-Nokia) 6mth later.

Same Guy who gave that interview told me a Week or Two back that it will go on sale before iphone 5 is announced.
which would be August/early September in my book.
I think he's just put a conservative estimate for release on things, just for the purpose of that interview b/c hes not allowed to say when yet.

Dunno if that's changed, but I certainly haven't heard otherwise...
Just plenty of users along-the-way "assuming" they will.

Just curious, why do you even bother following this thread any more?
You clearly hate the N9 and want the worst for it.

I also started envisioning a DIY combined case and hw keyboard for it, wonder if it would be possible to make it work with the NFC

if this is true its because of the WPsuck strategy. There are engineers who already has said "its ready" and just bugfixes now. Just take a look on all videos its seems ready to me!
I really hope it will be released end of september. atleast in my country
Even if Elop would be a trojan or the devil in person, he would have to be quite stupid to try any foulplay, when quite a few disgruntled devs wouldn't hesitate to call him out on that. From what I can tell though, Nokia management wants the N9 to succeed like the rest of us (aside from Dave and danramos
).

so, sometime between sept and nov, but we kinda knew that already
btw, i also like this bit from the interview:
"Worüber ich jetzt noch nicht reden kann, ist, ob das N9 das letzte Produkt mit MeeGo ist oder ob es noch weitere geben wird."
Transl:
"i cannot tell you yet if the N9 will be the last meego product or if there'll be more".
that doesn't sound like the definitive "no" everyone's so afraid of since the elop interview and quim's blog post
but then again, it could be...
god i hate marketing :P

I just ordered a WP7 phone (Samsung Ominia 7) to fill the gap of trying something new until N9 comes out. Well, my work allows me to buy a phone every 2 years and expense it for reimbursing and it cannot be an Android phone. As I have plenty of Nokia phones, I decided to get a WP7 phone to just play with. I'll be eagerly awaiting for the Mango update though.

By comparison, the N900 is an incredibly wonderful computer--and I didn't even like that move away from the N8x0 line as it is. Why do *I* check back? Hoping that something running Linux gets released that follows in the Maemo/MeeGo footsteps that I can like. So far, I remain unimpressed. Clearly, you're much easier to impress.
