These are photos taken with pre-production version of a camera sensor (and also pre-production version of a software as I can see GPSAltitude bug there that was fixed only recently, mind you Nokia Nxy make/model which is also fixed in launch release software). While quality might be sufficient, image quality tuning continues until very close to actual handover of a software to factory belts. So take these with a grain of salt.

Fast release is overrated. You have to give them some slack. From june to september is only 3 months. They showed several s40 devices as well, and they are coming this summer. If we see wp phones for christmas I tthink we will be happy.

Or at least complacent enough with a Nokia branded phone running Windows Phone 7, for the Nokia fanbois. :P Again, so much for Nokia branded Maemo/MeeGo eh?

no little Elop is just pissed cause meedia like N9 and if it succes he will get fired and no other company wants a looser.

So I prefer beleive in thosed scandinavians than idiot MrFlop.

Not true. Elop was a failure at Microsoft and Nokia hired him on. Apparently, there ARE companies that will hired failures as CEO's. There are many like this, too, think Carly Fiorina, Darl McBride, etc.

Is anybody seriously now going to risk $600+ on a phone which is not even supported by Nokia?

What seems odd is that it wasn't just a low profile release of the N9 phone without Elop being present, unless part of the deal with Intel was a senior member of Nokia had to be present when the first meego phone was released.

there are several reasons to buy this device. First of openess. next is no one her can actualy know if it will not be supported in long run. Third is it seems like the device has alot apps already.what most people want. That means MrFlop so called ecosystem isnt that important. take a look at N900 we dont have 100000 apps but still we have most of the stuff.

Btw. the community has alread started to make apps for n9 oor port from n900.

What Elop says is unitresting he is going down. He will not stay at this company for long thats for sure. Bussines decisions can change very fast...
