I don't see why not if they changed their strategy. Elaborate further as to why this is an impossibility.

Thank you for emailing the Nokia Careline.

We appreciate your interest in our product.

In response to your concern, we would like to inform you that the release date of the Nokia N9 is yet to be determined. Also, we are unable to guarantee if the said device will be available for purchase in the United States. What we can suggest to you is to frequently visit our website as well as our discussion board for more information on this matter.

We are hoping for your patience and understanding on this matter."

A glimmer of hope that a US version may come?
...or, an automated response IT dept. hasn't updated yet to reflect the fact the N9, in fact, will not be sold in the U.S.

Is this the new strategy & marketing nokia promised months ago ? ("Quick sale after announcement,..."). I still don't understand where are they going ... Can't say now again "I always trust in Nokia" like I said before.^^

And why not let people choose between Meego or WP on their device ? and simply see what to do after few months of sales ...

**** nokia strategy ! engineers should decide what to do in a better world \o/

So far as we know, Nokia haven't ported MeeGo 1.2 Harmattan edition to the hardware required by WP7.

it became unfashionable because people don't organize their own data. They want to click one button and have everything just sync

Correct ! But the both seem so very close to each other, so why not make same HW (swipe, ...) on the two device and give better choice to consumers !
They can do it for sure...

Well, see that is the point. I have full options of choices. I can get the N9 sim free, I can get in on contract, I can do the same with any Symbian, and any WP phone incl Nokia, or iPhone or android or Bada or whatever i want. The majority of people on this planet have the same choices as I do.

Nokia have already decided on the answer; from their perspective, there's nothing to be gained by asking the question.

You're not the only one doing it, and at least you're not taking a massive global corporation from "down" to "out" with your dreams.
