As a Ranger, sadly, I'm never in the competition (Heh, lucky u guys, less competitor ), but I secretly rooting for Andy to win!

Now2, AFAIK there is no news at all regarding Android App repackage (Alien Dalvik). And I'm sure this will be the case for a long, long time.

Except if there is a brave soul who managed to port ICS on N9 (No button requirement sure is a plus)
Or better, porting the DVM ala what RIM had done with their Playbook.

Oh, if only.........

Hmm, it seems like someone is selling me his N9 64GB for 460 Euro (around rm 1.8K). New set, unopened box btw.

Should I take the plunge? I wavered quite a bit cuz at that price, I can get a brand new SGS2 plus a 64GB Micro SDXC card (Yes. SGS2 supports it)

BUT that N9 design....Hngggghhhh!
Thoughts welcome!

Means I'm salivating over N9 design

Sadly I'm not in Malaysia now. So no buying from LYN.

Yes, I'm well aware of the fact that its a tad overkill for having 64GB on N9. Kinda pointless, considering it cant even handle 720P video well, unlike my tried and tested N8. A lil bit frustrating on that.

I've been using wp7 nowadays thru my Dell Venue Pro, and trust me, its really good. But little that I know, I become more and more dependent on Google services (Music, Email etc.). So using android is a no brainer. And my Galaxy Tab clearly cant cope with my usage, and its a lil bit too big

Thats why I'm eying SGS2 now. Which is such a pity, as I really, really loved Maemo (and to some extension..Meego ha3). Heck, my N810 still going strong as my glanceable, always connected bedside tablet.

But that design! Haha3, maybe I'll follow your advice, scavenging for good deals on N9 16gb. Or should I get the Lumia 800? Hmm.....new dilemma.

*in b4 first world problems*

Currently in Dublin, Ireland.
Well checked Ebay, and trust me, its quite expensive.
Just to confirm again, how much for N9 in Malaysia nowadays? For both models.

And does N9 support Bluetooth DUN? Currently playing around with Blackberry Playbook, which supports Bluetooth Dun tethering, and it'll be pretty cool to have a constant tethering connection that doesnt drain my battery in minutes, like on my N810

I'm an avid Gmail, Google Calendar, Music and Contacts user. And a light Reader user. Is there anyway for me to sync all that into N9?
Well aware there is no way for me to use Google Music tho...

Aha3. Yep, for me, 16GB were not enough. My N8 were running low on storage, eventhough it have 32gb (16+16gb) worth of storage. Thats why the prospect of having 64 GB worth of data in my pocket makes me drool...

And have to agree on you there. WP7 is limiting. Very limiting. Yet, tbh, the main reason why it (My Dell Venue Pro) replaces my N8 as my main phone is purely due to the fact that everytime I picked it up, it just work. No lagging, no hanging, just fluidly moving between apps to apps. And boy do I love that Peoples hub. Thats why N9 struck me the most. Its like an uncuffed WP7!

Thanks for your reply. May I know how much exchange account N9 can support in one time? And does N9 support contact and calandar sync over Exchange like in Symbian?

Thanks in advance!

Heh, who am I kidding? I'm too much of a geek to leave this phone alone.

TS, please add me as a user for Nokia N9 64GB Black color please

Funny enough, the first thing I did after I got the phone was enabling the developer mode. So much joy in having a terminal in my phone, eventhough not using for now, except for some simple commands. Kinda nostalgic, considering I haven't carrying my N810 around as frequent as before. And screw jailbrake and rooting, I can have root thru devel-su!

My take? So far, I'm loving this to death! Except this one issue when bluetooth and wifi switched on at the same time, the wifi will have severely reduced speed. Lurking in the bugtracker confirms that this is a bug

But hey, Swipe is addictive as hell!

Yep, the voice recognition on my Dell Venue Pro also quite impressive. But it sure have problems in detecting accents, something that you will get the hang of it, if you use it more and more.

One great thing about TellMe feature in WP7, if I connected to my phone via Bluetooth, as soon as I receive a text message, the phone will read it to me, and I can reply and send messages (Only short ones, as longer message will definitely have problems to be transcribed into text. Our Malaysian accent sure not the easiest to decipher ) without even getting my phone outta my pocket. Very convenient IMHO.

Thanks!

Been a Maemo user since N810 days, still kicking myself for choosing the craptastic N97 over the uber-awesome N900 and definitely not going to miss out on the N9
