Like i said earlier, i'll believe it when Nokia officially announce something.. the phone i saw that guy using looked like the finished article to me and the icons were exactly the same.
I don't see any reason for Nokia to release a keyboardless device.. how will the average consumer distinguish it from an N8?
And if Nokia engineers are viewing this thread they will see they would be making a huge mistake by the general feedback..

Oh, wait, no, that's because developers type their programs in the device itself!!...

What else, the developer device has a better or a worse camera? Is E7 the "developer's" N8?

No, the device with the keyboard has inferior hardware. And if an app runs on inferior hardware it runs on the better hardware even better (duh!).
I'm really sorry that you're disappointed at the moment even if it wasn't my decicion...
Hope you'll still like the device when you'll get your hands on it.

@ zehjotkah
you mentioned the 720p screen - is that only for the dev device, or for the consumer device too?

But thinking logical I can't imagine the consumer device to have a lesser screen than the dev-device.
