I can foresee a problem when my N9 gets here. Since it is from Denmark I will not be able to navigate through the beginning menus because they will be in a foreign language.
Can I ask a favor of you European guys that get your N9?
If you know English can you explain what the screen is asking you when you unbox it for the first time? And can you guide us over to the language selection?
Without sim inserted because some people will have to go and get a microsim after they unbox it.
Wait a second, that's still not going to change all the menu and icon languages or is it?
A lot of guys from the US are going to be getting there N9's from foreign countries that they are not likely to know the language of.
I remember there was a way to change the variant number on the N900 that I had to do so we could get the prease rait 1.2 firmware. So I'd want to change mine to Australian or UK Ireland or global variant or is this not going to be necessary?
I'll go watch the foreign language unboxing videos on youtube and see if I can see.

That's simply not true at all, otherwise there would be no reason for networks to switch to it. They would not have bothered rolling out HSPA+ networks if there wasn't enough bandwidth. You don't get max speeds but you get higher speeds than HSPA, this I know for a fact.
Actually I think there is really no point for operators to invest on HSPA+. 4G is the next thing.

Easier said than done. I don't have a regular schedule, get home at different hours each day, got stuff to do when I get there, or I'm just not sleepy.
Usually I have a short window when the Sandman comes and if I'm not ready to hit the sack and miss it, I just stare at the ceiling until the wee hours of the night...

I don't think you'll need to hear it more than once.

But if this catches me in REM sleep, while dreaming (I try to time my waking each morning but don't always succeed), it f*cks up my whole day...

HSPA+ is 4G, it was allowed to be called 4G because it was an improved network that could still compete with LTE and WiMax.
here is a speedtest in Finland with HSPA+

If you want to know about the improvements in HSPA+ over HSPA.

But the WM7 "horse" has a blood lineage tracing back to donkeys such as WM6.5, 6.1, 6.0, 5.1 that was fully neglected for too many years and Microsoft did sweet F all to maintain it (still running on Pocket IE4/6!!).
