    So this may very well change. But there is some differences in qt-components and qt-component for symbian but they will also merge.

    Its way easier to do crossplatform now than for a year ago. When symbian still used its own crap API and Fremantle was using gtk+

    And in case of OSS applications we will probadly see alot of new Harmattan apps backported to Maemo5/Meego1.3CE because now we have same Qt version in fremantle as Harmattan and qt-component.
    As it happens, I've actually been testing cuteTube using Symbian Belle and Qt Components, so I'm not forgetting anything.

    I agree that it's easier than before, and Qt Components makes it easier still, but it's still quite a way from the 'code once, deploy everywhere' mantra. There is still some fragmentation, and the problem with Qt on Symbian is that there are still lots of little things that don't work as expected, just as there were with Maemo at first. You end up spending a lot of time with workarounds, and the documentation for these is often buried in some obscure place. I will say that things have been going pretty smoothly on Meego-Harmattan, apart from an annoying bug in the Qt SDK that would result in applications failing Ovi Store QA (single instance requirement). I'm not sure if this is fixed in the latest update (I haven't read the changelog ), but I'll be trying it out later tonight.

    EDIT: Single instance issue is fixed according to the release notes.

    I'm planning on backporting my own Meego-Harmattan applications to Freemantle in due course, so it will be interesting to see how that works out. I'm expecting some fun and games.

    So..... are we going to get the N9 or 9000 posts first?

    Or maybe they are testing for consumer interest and we have to get to 9000 posts for the N9 to come out. Assuming the number of posts per day has been relatively constant (which is a silly assumption), that means the N9 is coming out in about 30 days.

    Seems like Iphone5 also pissing on Flash like Nokia N9.

    However it seems not even flashvideos fully work on Iphone it if I remember correct Nokia N9 will have support for it

    My guess is also the camera is still better on Nokia N9
    and the OS ofcourse and NFC support.

    If it doesnt was because of MrFLop Nokia may very well take back customers from Iphone to Nokia N9

    Thing is I dont think WP can take Iphone customers but N9 will.

    Something I totally foprgot about N9 is:

    is the chat integrated like on Maemo5 with the contactlist?

    I mean this was really i killer future. When Iphone people did have a stupid app to send messages instead of SMS. We just had it integrated directly in the contact using MSN/GTalk whatever...

    According to the Singapore Nokia Site the device will be 299,- euros

    I hope it will be!

    But if the VAT in your country is higher, the N9 will be too

    € in Singapore. First, they mix up Australia and Austria, then this? But 299€ is very very cheap!
