After being deeply disappointed that the n950 was not released I did buy the N9 (Singapore version) although it did not have support in US. Not too long after that I decided to get the original Galaxy Note because it had a much larger screen. I just did not like how small the screen was on N9 with the virtual keyboard, even though the N9's keyboard, in itself, was pretty good. The Note also had the stylus which I always liked to use with my beloved N900. Surprising, in many respects the original Note, with ice cream sandwich, could do multitasking better than current versions of Android. For example you could open two browsers and simultaneously play two Youtube videos. Try doing that nowadays on android. I think Nokia was big enough to have both N9 and N950 as products. At least for a awhile. Would have probably been been swallowed up by the Apple and Android ecosystems anyways, but it would have been fun while it lasted.
