Sorry guys. There will be no N9, N950 or any other niners. This was a joke played on by the corporate world to eliminate all the Linux geeks. Excessive yearning is dangerous for your health

So unless there is another device we haven't seen (which seem highly unlikely at this point), I'm afraid we can only wish that it's using the new 1280x720p LCD.

As can be seen by this recent post by Pia (dev?) at Nokia:
http://lists.meego.com/pipermail/mee...ne/483361.html

There are only 3 devices mentioned for Meego in that post:
Dali (dev), Lankku (consumer) and N900 (the mega beast).

Wow this is a gold mine!!!
Apparently now we know that as n900 was focussed on landscape orientation apps now n9 is focussed on portrait orientation!!!
Also a very good troublesome issue is also being addressed (for developers i.e
keep track of device acceler axis while orientation is changed)

but I don't want to judge too soon as many guys at xda forums are close to returning theirs because of the poorly written battery drivers until Cyanogen comes out with a nightly and they say it saved their phone.

Still I wish it had a keyboard, I hate pausing a video in browser and going to do something then coming back and I pick it up and my hand accidentally touches the corner of the screen or something and off I go to some other link/place somewhere and my spot in the video is destroyed.
I'm not into capacitive screens and their keyboards that much.

New rumor, the Vatican to buy Nokia.
They are planning to implement a talk to god service that will be showcased on the upcoming Harmattan device which will run the s40 interface on top.

With this move, the Vatican hopes to enrich its followers with a demographic of young people and at the same lower the direct contact between their ministers and teenagers thus keeping the rate of child abuse lawsuits manageable.
With the direct influence of god, Nokia hopes to stay afloat.

That remembers me a movie, PRIEST, where they claim to be guided by GOD and if you turn it against they, it means you are turning against GOD.

Facetime with God. Awesome. Then if an sms is received, you can multitask by swiping God to the side.

btw aren’t there any FCC documents about the consumer device?

NvyUs | # 4800 | 2011-06-11, 07:38 | Report

Nope but keep in mind there does Not need to be, Nokia Oro did not show Up until week after it was announced.
If the device gets announced then ships 2 months later then it leaves plenty time to get FCC approval.
