Got my N9 16gb black,
For a long time i was using Android and iOS,and now im back with nokia.
im so impressed with the device,in terms of physical hardware its simple and beautiful just like apple products. The OS is best and simple to use,beautifully made. Impressive! Internal hardware are at level of those android phones of 2010 with 1ghz processor, but it works well with the meego OS, although there are some lags sometimes i think its natural with a phone unless you have a SGS2.
I was also impressed with the visibility of the display on sunlight its clear. I hope this OS will given a chance to grow, because as of now i think its better than android OS, and i hope more application will come for meego..

You'd have to have bought a miniSD (770), then standard SD (N800, N810), then microSD (N900) to none (N9). That is not a smart hardware strategy no matter how you slice it.

am I correct to think the nexus prime / ice cream sandwich has a multi tasking view? I see an icon on the quick launch bar which showed a grid view. If this is indeed true then it changed things for me. Quick/effective multitasking is my top requirement from a device.

I'm with you. I have been actively following all the hype about the N9... too actively. And what now? We wound up with a pretty outdated hardware, unfinished software and a totally fuzzy distribution and support strategy. Swipe UI is a nice refreshment on the market, and the phone looks really nice and trendy... but that's about it.
What about all the N900 features that make it a dream phone for an average geek? Is there a keyboard? No. Is it at least as open as the N900? No. They even introduced this Aegis thingy to protect the users from themselves. And if the reason for this was to make the phone (and the OS) more appealing to the masses, why don't they at least sell it to the masses?
Then, when it comes to non-geek aspects, what is there besides the great design and Swipe? Can you make video calls? No! That becomes a pretty basic feature nowadays. Does the browser support Flash? No, it does not, although we do know it is there and it works. So it's a management decision. This list would be pretty long if I went on.
And the price? A total rip-off compared to what the competitors can offer.
I really am a geek and support GNU/Linux, FOSS etc. but hey, this is too much. There are too many ifs about this phone and I am not buying it unless a majority (if not all) of them are resolved in our favor. Until then, I prefer to stick to the N900 and/or buy a cheap Android with similar specs and much better support.
edit:
And yes, I forgot... If I ordered the N9 right away, with all the arguments given above, I wouldn't consider myself too different from an Apple fanboy that preorders his new iDevice without even knowing the specs. Actually this is what triggered the alarm in my head.
* dont compare maemo harmattan+Qt+swipeUI with shitty android crap OS. I know there is 95% android fanboys on this forum and personally I dont get why are you here!?!?!
* Second Nokia has said there will be a update end of october we dont know what this update brings!
* peregrine will bring video call support and we dont know yet if nokia also plan to bring it in some update
* I have heard atleast two person who has both SGS2 and N9 who actually says N9 runs smoother in case of UI than SGS2
* The price is lower than Iphone and around same as SGS2 in sweden and it will probadly go down in some months. this is always the same early adaptors pay higher prices same goes for every damn device released!
* and about flash many here first whine about "n9 is not open" and then in the second sentence want flash!? now how open is that peace of ****?!

As far as the rest, and Atrix 2 means OMAP4. The Nokia N9 can't claim that.

Stop complaining about the price.
If it is too expensive for you, just go away.
