I think that lack of N9 release may also have to do with N9 not being competitive in the USA. I already heard several people not that happy with VKB. That is a deal breaker. Who knows what other bugs there are.

Let's try and base our opinions on in depth reviews, rather than the opinions of people who waited in line for an hour just to use the phone for 10 minutes.
At least two people, one from finland and the other from california that had chance to check it out
note: I'm not saying the opinions of people who have used the device for shorter amounts of time are invalid, I'm just saying they should carry less weight.

Every device has a learning curve. The only problem is that many of the most recent NOKIA devices DO NOT HAVE a curve....but a flat line, like a dead horse. I bet this thing is buggy from the get go and NOKIA brass knows that only Third World will buy this defect

Here's an idea, how about you email Mr Elop (or whoever happens to be replying on his behalf)?
I found it most useful.

I read the thread you pointed to already. I already had a CEO who took over my company, made millions, bailed, and left customers and employees to go down the tubes.

I do, as he is the representent of a public company and speaks in the company's name.
(Yet that doesn't mean I think insulting him is right nor improves the quality of tmo)

So if the N950 has similar firmware, albeit older, and the VKB is said to be good, how are you dismissing that? You sound like a bitter, jilted ex lover. I'm done discussing this with you, as you have proven time and time again, that your mind is already made up that the device will have faults. More power to you, but I'm not interested in having discussions with people that refuse to acknowledge valid points supported by facts. Enjoy your weekend.
