Nostalgia will only get you so far. My doubts have increased the more these companies rely on good thoughts based on good experiences that include nothing more than the brand name going forward but hardly none of core reasons of aforesaid rosy nostalgia.

Android, a half-hearted approach to fit and finish, lesser quality components and an embrace of design in one country, build wherever everybody else may build just dilutes the brand.

If they brought out a revived N9 but with Android as the OS; it will not be the same.

Meh.
