My lucky colleague got N9 and brought it into work. Finally I have managed to do small hands-on.

Device is stellar! OS is superb! But..

I Like:
+ build quality
+ display
+ camera is blazing fast. It's amazing.
+ service integration
+ quality of apps is excellent when compared to legacy devices
+ caldav
+ swipeUI

Don't like:
- virtual keyboard
- missing camera button
- this is something Nokia needed over 2 years ago. GRRR.

Buy or Not: Buy.

N9:it’s finally here, but you can’t get it!

N9:it’s finally here, but Nokia wants to kill it

N9:it’s finally here, but it doesn’t matter anyway

N9:it’s finally here, what should i do now with my life-time

Okay after uk and usa, germany is next on that n9 absence list.

A NOKIA SPOKESMAN CONFIRMS NO N9 FOR GERMANY!!! If you want one, you have to import it from Austria like Amazon.de de does it!

A rational person would buy another device move on and make the best of it. On the other hand, emotions have their own logic that can be rooted in very strong principles. The N950 and N9 were right in so many ways. This Nokia generated debacle with the N950 and now the N9 is sucking the life out of a lot of people. If this situation continues, sooner or later one will be forced to become rational...

That happens... I'll definitely know it's a plot to bury the N9 & MeeGo Harmattan as far down as possible.

But the good part? Qt/QML on iOS

looks like nokia is starting reseller trainings and sending out demo n9´s to them next week.

They also made the retail date range known, but the range is so large that it is pretty meaningless (a usual cover your *** release date) but the earliest it will come out is 16.9

they are also internally working on atleast one additional meego device (a tablet perhaps, or a qwerty phone?), but i don´t think even they know if that device will ever see the daylight.

and no, i cannot name my sources
