guy answers question posed by other guy
unrelated third party gets unfathomably angry at first guy because how dare you answer someones question
first guy expresses legitimate derision
unrelated third party acts oblivious to how wrong they are (i.e. very) and acts like they are fighting for a "cause", forgetting that we're talking about mobile phones here and not the meaning of life

honest to god abill you were either dropped on your head as a child or have been punched in the face several times because you're a colossal idiot

He's answering questions based on what he knows, the N950. In a fact starved forum, it's rather welcoming.

Looks good but not enough information there and i was honestly suprised it was not posted on the specific N950 thread.

Is the suggestion that it will be available on the N9?.

Think of it this way. If it is not there on the N9, but it there on the N950 (and vice versa) then those are the differences.

It's much better to know if there are any changes than not knowing. Less surprises that way.

Ok agree and while we are on the N950, what is the reason for it's release to developers because i am totally confused about this when we all know Nokia will not be supporting it or the N9 or Maemo or MeeGo.

Don;t you think this is all a pointless excersise?.

Yes, as I mentioned earlier, on the Mail home page below your in boxes, you can choose to show either "favorite folders," or "recent messages." "favorite folders" includes network mail folders.

How do u access contextual search? Must i go back to the app page and do a global search and apply filtering?
If you're talking about the global search like iOS has, it can be accessed from the portrait-mode-only quick launch bar. The far right icon is for full device search, and I quote:

Is the events page sensibly managed? I mean if i put twitter and facebook, can i rearrange the order, or section them off to reduce space eg like a drop down tap.? What's the max length of this page?
I'm not sure. For the life of me I can't seem to get it filled with the Facebook news feed. I dismissed them all the other day and I haven't seen them since. Sorry.

How good is the python support for developiement? I read somewhere it's using pyside.
Yes, PySide is there, but the PySide guys decided to get rid of QString objects in favor of native Python strings. Whatever. So, if you have QString function calls from your PyQt4 applications, they have to be rewritten. And I do. Not cool.

Are there any voice features?
If you're talking about voice activation, I haven't seen any. The Drive app, when available, will have:

Are you an Apple Crusader or something ? Are you frustrated ? Do you envy the N9 ? I'm sure you do. You're scared that people will love the N9, and I'm sure you're doing everything to wash unaware people's brain on Android and Apple related forums.

I know what your dream is. Your dream is that your mastermind guru Steve Jobs steals the N9's swipe UI innovations with the curved glass screen and put it all together in the iPhone 5 and make a brainwashing awesome speech to introduce it before the N9 comes out to pretend it's their innovation and so you'll be able to come back here again to nargue us. You act like the silly bad guys in cartoons who always loose at the end.

Let's play your game in reverse mode :
Has your iPhone USB On-The-Go ? No, and it never will.
Has your iPhone native bluetooth transfert ? No, and it never will.
Has your iPhone native photo & video editing solution ? No.
Has your iPhone a good camera ? No.
Has your iPhone native free and good map navigation ? No, and it never will.
Has your iPhone Qt ? No, and it never will.
Has your iPhone an app for running Android apps ? NO and Maemo/Meego got one.
I can carry on again and again but it's late and I have to sleep.
How often do people use USB On-The-Go? I guarantee you not very often at all.
How often do people transfer things through Bluetooth? Not very often.
There are tons of third party apps that beat Nokia's first party app.
iPhone 5 will have a good camera. iPhone 4's is already good enough.
Does your N9 have TeleAtlas maps navigation? That's right NO! iPhone has both NAVTEQ and TeleAtlas GPS apps, and Navigon is way better than Nokia's Maps.
Who cares about Qt? How is that an advantage a consumer will use?
Running Android apps? You are very, very misinformed about that subject and besides, why would iOS need sub par applications from Android?

iPhone delivers where it matters. And it's not me killing it, it's Nokia themselves killing it. They are not marketing it at all, and they'll only make 250 thousands of N9s, Apple sells 20+ million iPhones in a quarter.

Sooner or later you will have either iPhone or Android. It's inevitable, Nokia is going down.

Does it have scrubbing like iOS?

"I guarantee you"

well i'm convinced

"good enough"

SOUNDS AWESOME

"way better"

what an objective metric

"who cares about qt"

what an informed opinion

"where it matters"

also known as "not everywhere"
