Am I the only one that finds iOS … dated? TL;DR:
details
I fully understand I will receive innumerable fan-[gender] of [iOS|Android] hate responses but I'm actually being serious. Money out of the picture, I've used iPhones on and off since they came out, but mainly Android (Nexus devices - N1, etc.) for the last few years and now I'm stuck between OSs and a hard place. I picked up a Nokia N9 running MeeGo (from Maemo, and now on to ... Tizen??) and …

1) all the carriers locking down tethering on *unlocked* devices
2) my recent walking away from... Read more →

So has anybody considered selling their N9 for a Lumia 800?
details
While I'm impressed that Nokia pulled a rabbit out of their hat with Meego Harmattan, I'm still looking at WinMo 7.5 and find it pretty appealing. Honestly I really just love the N9/Lumia 800 chassis and feel that WinMo 7.5 offers a slightly more polished interface and experience.

If your buying the N9, what is it that makes you want it over other OS's?
details
The Harmattan UI is killer, thats the first thing that stands out for me, then the integration of services like Skype, Twitter and Google made me happy.

How well would the N9 do in America if Nokia aggressively marketed it?
details
Even as an iPhone 4 user I have to say that the N9 looks cool, but it seems dead on arrival in the US because there's no carrier subsidy and it will only be sold in extremely limited quantities with no advertising push. It seems to be the ultimate "what might have been" phone. So hypothetically let's say Nokia made a deal with AT&T (no Verizon because of CDMA) and actually tried to market it in America. Would it outsell WebOS? Windows Phone? How well could it do? (Also the N9 page here needs...

Does anyone know the official name for this Nokia N9 slider phone?
details
Nokia just officially announced a Meego phone called the N9 few days ago ( http://www.engadget.com/2011/06/20/nokias-n9-offic... ) and I wanted to add it to the site, but it we already have this N9. Is Nokia just crazy naming two different devices the same thing or was there a name change at some point for the "original" N9?
