I checked at 3 Nokia stores in KL/PJ and all of them told me the same thing: December.

Don't take this as true though. You know salesmen...

1 projector + 1 n900 does wonders

To be honest, this phone is not for the faint heart. It would be wise if to join andriod if you're not a big fan of tweaks/hacks. I would rate andriod and OSX much user friendly.

Hardware wise, yes they do have front camera. Rumor has it, they will polish up the feature video call and MMS function on coming firmware. & yes, some reviewer claim the camera cover does have a tolerance gap in between to avoid any potential scratches.
