and the N9 logo when the keyboard is slided out is to remind you to use it then primarily in landscape mode.

I'm curious, why do you or other people like a forced tilt screen? I understand a tilted screen is great for table-top use, but a device this size is going to be held in the hands far more and with the forced tilt, either the screen will be at a terrible angle or your wrists will be.
I liked it alot on the N97 mini i was using for a month. Hard to say yet how will it do on a heavier and bigger device. For now it's positive thing to me but we will see.

PS : oops looks like it's got one microsd slot from zehjotkah post below ...

That kind of oldskool mechanical engineering is so rare these days.
