i find there are a lot of people who post a huge amount on this thread. But what i noticed is they say so much without saying anything really. it's just 1 opinion and epenis battle message or reply with bits of half truths mashed into meaningless posts.
too many keyboard warriors on here trying to master debate
over how informed and clever they are.
People say it's not going to get support. people say it is. everyone has different levels of support required. i've used my n900 and was very happy with the support i've received. the fw updates were all that was needed to iron out things that i felt needed to be. as you can tell on the forum prior to those releases there was alot of threads with problems. most those people have moved on.
if you don't like it fine but why the hell are you so interested if you arent interested? makes no sense other then your bored/disgruntled/keyboard warrior/live in your moms basement and get bullied so need to feel big. watever.

Who is this other Australian retailer that claims August?
Everything I've heard so far via jakiman (who has contacts @Nokia Australia) has been vague WRT retail distribution.
So it's great to hear they'll be retail availability alongside carrier subsidized N9's!

I would've lost my sanity long ago if it weren't for your enlightening posts.
Oh & Jukka Ekland just tweeted this:

Still early days of course, but I reckon we'll have a much better start than N900 ever had.
Not that that's the most ideal bench-mark...
It could've been way better, but we already know that sad/repetitive story, yada, yada, yada.
cod3rror's still furiously spreading his half-truths & outright FUD in comments here, sigh, WTH's that guys problem!?

WTF?
http://my-meego.com/software/applica...dAuto=10&faq=7
I've seen no "proof" that this is definitely coming.
Only statements of hope made by Myriad, that this will be jumped-on by Nokia etc.
Wishful thinking on this software archive's part I guess?

I dont think you understand my post at all because what i am saying is they did not do enough on Maemo or MeeGo and certainly a lot lot less than they accomplished on symbian.
The right kind of developers were just not there for Maemo or MeeGo.

If people want Android games/Apps then they should switch to Android. This Myriad business is confusing because people who don't follow TMO as closely as some here, will buy into a device with wool over their eyes.
N9 will need to stand on its own feet - and the developers with the N950 are helping it in its infancy. I will get the N9 for what it can do rather than what I hope it can do one day. Any updates to the OS would only be to iron out any bugs and compete adding any functionality that has already been agreed to - not to enhance and change the UI so that it looks like a new OS.

i wonder if the pricing will be the same around europe or will it be cheaper to get it in other countries.

read a nice article on the culture of critique.
this bit here should be read by many here.
now after reading that. think about the n9, this thread, the whole n9 vs n950. all the "it's dead on arrival" and "it's best thing ever made and will kill apples". i enjoy finding things out for myself. i enjoy the little discoveries. i do like knowing about something before i buy it but i rather make my own mind up and use my own judgement. wait for it and use your own judgement on it, make your own decision. don't be someone elses hand.
this bit here should be read by many here.
Technoculture critic and former Wired contributor Erik Davis is concerned about the proliferation of reviews, too. “Our culture is afflicted with knowingness,” he says. “We exalt in being able to know as much as possible. And that’s great on many levels. But we’re forgetting the pleasures of not knowing. I’m no Luddite, but we’ve started replacing actual experience with someone else’s already digested knowledge.”
