Well, we won't get the N9 until a few weeks from now.
Anyone want to help out on #maemo cracking open the EMMC firmware images Nokia's handing out? They'll likely boot on the N900, given that they run on an OMAP3 3630 and the same GPU, a SGX530.

How can you be so damn sure you need more than 1Ghz!?!?!?
People should learn to not only read how cool HW spec and thinks its the only thing that is important. Cause its not!
regardless, i will buy the phone, looks great.

You seem to be hard sell. No, it doesn't have artificial intelligence with 3D holographic display that can read your mind. Well in this challenging case, I recommend holding it in your hands and trying it out. It's like nothing before yet it's instantly easy to use.
IMO this is not true. I assume it would still have:
- a largely open, linux-based OS.
- a flashy new UI.
- a fast and capable web browser.
- a great quality (albeit 4:3) camera.
- great build quality.
- free, off-line sat-nav capabilities.
- USB host capabilities.
None of which are world's firsts... Nokia has done them all before.

Well, I'm almost sold.
No hardware keyboard. Honestly, I can take it or leave it. I use both hardware and software keyboards on my N900.

I've been away quite a bit (moved on to other systems, like many others...) so excuse me for not knowing this off-hand, couldn't find the information here very easily either, so: will this N9 UI be available on the N900 through some Nokia/non-Nokia project? I remember that there used to be some talk about such things, but what's the currect status - will Nokia help people upgrade to the N9 UI? I'm really not interested in the standard Meego UI, it looks terrible to tell you the truth, but this new Meego-Harmattan from the N9 is at least interesting, so any chance of this coming to the N900 at some point?

I could understand nervousness if you are big on gaming and want to be sure that games on your phone can get those last few polygons on the screen, but if gaming is your primary concern, then you should obviously go with a bigger platform anyway. Some 3D games that will be available for the N9 also look gorgeous and run completely fluidly.
What we can say about all these aspects of the interface is that they're done exceedingly well and make the somewhat aged OMAP3630 processor look terrific. Fluid animations are evident throughout, navigation is natural, and this marks a major advance over anything else Nokia has given us on the software front in terms of touch-based UI.
