It's typical Nokia fashion. Announce, then release a quarter or two later. I'm sure once it's released though, it'll actually do quite well.

Not for long IMO. iPhone 5 will eclipse its release. Since other folks may prefer to buy a well known iPhone instead of N9 (unforunately) . But I wish that won't happen,although it may will.

What?? Surely you jest! SURELY, despite numbers to the contrary since its release, the Windows Phone 7 phones running Microsoft's Windows Phone 7 "Windows" for phone handsets will phone pants down--I mean, WIN pants down! I mean hands down! I'm SURE we won't go bluescreen of death in the face waiting for it to surely bring Nokia back from its downward bends... er trends!

Yep, certainly doesn't look like Elop's much touted change from:
Announce horridly late, & release horridly late
To a more Apple-esque:
Announce within a decent time-frame, & then release within 1mth worldwide

Unless he doesn't care about making that applicable to the N9, wouldn't surprise me
Probably more so that senior management hasn't had time to make that a reality for the N9.
But I want to believe the conspiracies, I hate Elop, and very soon Nokia!
And then my conversion to the "hate side" along w/dan & gerbick will be complete, muahahaha! jk

You're absolutely right IMO....
They're screwed if it's not out in all major markets at least 1mth before the iP5.
Complete with extremely heavy marketing (which won't happen).

Avg. consumer/salesperson will go:
"Hmm, nice phone that seems as good as the iPhone4, even better in some ways...
But I've never heard of it, & the iP5's coming very soon, think I'll stick to what I know"

Yup, I hope it obliterates Searay sales. Errm maybe not....
I want Nokia to get strong again before they consider investing heavily in a Linux-based phone again.
Then again if they're too successful with WP, they'll probably never want to risk devising a high-end OS again

The iPhone is saturated. The 3gs is still selling, and the 4 has a long way before reaching the numbers of the 3gs. The 5 will only push down prices of the 3gs and the 4, and that may be bad enough (for Nokia), but it does nothing wrt early adopters. There is nothing new and fresh about the iPhone anymore, and the 5 is only yet another re-iteration of the old.

That's all the iphone will ever be. Everyone should know iphones strategy by now. They slowly implement features one by one instead of releasing a phone with all of them at once. I for one hate Apple.

we dont know that until iphone5 is released. I am sure it will have hdmi as an example.

and that is one of the most stupid thing about n9 why the **** is this not included?

that could be a good sell argument. even E7 has it

I guess there was some stupid people behind this I am sure they could include it and even that it is on the board but not included in the endline cause then it would be better than upcoming WPsuckphone

-X7 looks way better
-No real keyboard
-Doesn't look handier then maemo

I'm not convinced. I usually change phones every 2 years, but I'm guessing I'll have to use the n900 a bit longer, even though my screen is scratched pretty badly and my lock button lost its grip..

It will be able to to play 1080 certainly, but it wont have HDMI out just as certainly.
It will have the norm ipod/ipad/iphone connector where you will need to buy the 39 euros AV adapter to get that direct HDMI out.
