Hi,
As we all know what Nokia did for Maemo, no support and no updates after Nokia decided that no more Maemo phones, if we all know for sure that N9/N950 is the last MeeGo phone - how Nokia will provide frequent updates for the device. Hence this leads to the same old story - No flash updates and No official UI updates from Nokia. Only hope is this community and developers should help to push these phones for sales.
According to me if we know no flash support and no updates and no fixes why should any one has to buy these phones??? I am going to stay with N900.
Please submit your poll and thoughts.
Thanks in advance,
Sudarsan.
And who needs firmware updates if the handset is working properly as it is? Seriously, if you don't want one, don't buy it, why fill this forum with your opinions on the matter? It's not an interesting discussion ...

N900 + Flash 10 will be good combo, but Nokia somehow refuses to update this great device, even with the demo video available on youtube.

This is to create awareness for ppl who expect frequent Flash updates, flash is basic for web browsing on any smart phone...
Please ignore if you are not a flash user
Thanks again,

if the N950 comes out with a keyboard and has a micro sd slot (unlike the N9.. tut tut) then i may consider it. i would consider a N950 even more if i could put maemo on it. i imagine that could be an awesome combination as it would not only be FAST but have updated hardware. this would be a real dream with all the software support already out there. i mean maemo is an absolutely solid OS on not too bad hardware at the time, but things have moved soooo fast since then.
N950 + keyboard + updated hardware + maemo... may be a great combination

Buy a pair of trousers with large pockets and keep both, like I will do!
It is very clear that those who love the N900 will miss a lot of its features in the N9.
Enjoy the N9 as a phone and for its large RAM upgrade mutitasking browser performance, its nice looking screen, integrated always online IM features,... to shut op iPhone users when they laugh with your brick like N900...
Use N900 for anything that needs a keyboard or precission input, drawing etc...
N9 screen and virtual keyboard will drive you mental in a stress situation when you were used to productivity on N900.
The N950 we leave out of consideration now as it is not available.
In the years after Elopcolaps of Nokia, keep both N9 and N900 and if you are lucky enought to find a N950, that one as well as vintage items next to ZX81 and Commodore 64 and AMD K7 with white box Asus motherboard that did not exist.

Just purchased an E6, hopefully it will arrive today. The N900 is going all MeeGo/to rest, buuuut the N9 is too sexy not to get it On the other hand rumors of 1GHz+ (hopefully with the U8500) Symbian is starting to get around, and since Symbian is more powerul in all respects I wil wait and see.

Poll should be on three options
1) stay with N900
2) buy N9
3) buy N950
I will surely stay with N900 till N950 form factor comes along, forget N9

I placed a pre-order for a N9 a few minutes ago.
Will use the N9 to replace my E72, and will keep my N900 while it lasts.
Am still hoping that another mobile phone manufacturer will
release a Meego phone that has most (more) features thn the N900.
