What I mean is if there is some kind of locking like on Android where you unlock with pattern and Symbian with pincodes? If you leave the device for longer...

To those who have a N9, could you please try playing this Simpsons trailer and see if you can get this playing 100% smoothly on your N9? Mine does not and so I just want to make sure mine isn't a dud. (Mine plays it at around 1 fps mostly and even fails to play sound after a while)

Oh. Also try this 10000BC trailer which my N8 can play 100% perfectly.

THAT I dont like....
Just wonder if this can be "replaced" by thirdparty "app" for example unlock with my NFC card or with the androids pattern unlocking UI... I guess not. Probadly closed source :-/

Does the case that comes with the phone interfere with your swiping at all from bottom to top or side to side?

dummy of the year question.
a new text message comes in, At the top status bar you can see part of it, just like android. If you click on it straight away it takes you to the message, but if you miss the period that it shows there... is there a quicker way to go to the message other than manually navigate to the messages screen, then open the message. On android, the status menu dropdown shows the message. an easier way to access an incoming message?
on the n900, you would simply go to the task switcher and it is there

Switching vkb is easy, just swipe left or right on the VKB itself.
