so the orientation of the nokia logo at the top of the device would suggest that it is primarily used in portrait mode?

If you look at this picture and that one, it seems they are using through-hole instead of surface-mount. Now we have to see how it fare in real life.

VINDICATED!!!

You're all welcome.

Now if only they hired you back, gave you a payraise, and put you in charge of someone to make sure Nokia doesn't screw up the N9. =P

I could live with that.

Can someone start a campaign? I promise to also stamp out chiclet keyboards.

Bleh. I hope Nokia is planning to make the N9 hinge adjustable. While the option to tilt can be a great benefit, a forced tilt is simply a waste of engineering time, money, and, most importantly, interior space.

I'm glad they went with the N97 type sliding mechanism. I always said my perfect phone have been the N900 with the N97's sliding keyboard hinge.

I'm curious, why do you or other people like a forced tilt screen? I understand a tilted screen is great for table-top use, but a device this size is going to be held in the hands far more and with the forced tilt, either the screen will be at a terrible angle or your wrists will be.
