Well, I for one will not be an early adopter. I do love its looks, and what it promises, but I'll wait for the first user reviews, the first firmware-update, and till its price drops a bit (probably when the wp7 series will come out). I want to know what the hardware is capable of, how hackable the OS is, wait till a bunch of developers start to make use of the new stuff and let the platform mature a bit. This time around I want no breaking USB ports, no white spots on the TFT, no surprises.
Not me atleast.. Different userbase imho.

Why buy it when I know that Nokia has abandoned Meego for Windows? When I know that it has no future? Yes I love my N900. For sure N9 will be great but....

This looks great, but let's not pretend it will get any support from Nokia or third party devs. I'd rather wait for a year or so 'till it has a community properly supporting it like the N900 has. It'll be a lot cheaper by then too. Besides, I want to see if it really is the successor to the N900 both in terms of hardware, software and community support.

This just looks too Symbian for me. If this is really Harmattan... I really have a long way to go to accept it.
I thought when Marko Ahtisaari talked about new OS UI paradigms, I thought WP7 was going to be a soul-sister in design language and innovation. Peter Skillman was hired by Nokia and he soon went on to say he hates "Clutter, clutter, clutter.", which S^3 was said to be the prime example of. The leaked UI powerpoint thing however unlikely to be ever implemented played on the dark and cool colours of Maemo5, just took it to the next level.
Now it looks like Android. I mean the platform that's version releases are named after pastries. Pastries are cool for overweight engineers that find Stephen King and cardboard partyplates with red, yellow and blue as high art. And its visible in how completely uninteresting the UI on Android is.
I thought Nokia's MeeGo was going to start something new or just be very different. Just like the N900. What's happened here?
If this is it, then my God, was it dumbed down. Or perhaps my expectations were raised too high, but I think for good reason.
Heavens above, imagine someone sees you using this in the street and asks you if its Symbian! Nightmare! :S
