Where nokia pretty much said they were going to try to stop all leaks...
And then about 1wk later, 2-days after N9 was finally revealed, sea-ray was deliberately leaked.

N9, black, 16GB, incl shipping, price 4690 NOK = 602.73 €

That's a pretty lack-luster price....

Retailer here in Australia has the 64GB for 535.4 euro ($749AUD)*
Pre-order price, so it may be subject to change once the N9's actually out.

Down-side is that they seem to offer 64GB in black only, & 16GB in cyan only.
I'm thinking about placing an order...
But I'll be pissed if they turn around later, & say I have to pay more.

I vaguely recall these guys having a good rep. WRT the N900.

What about 464 pound for the 64GB one?
See my response about retailer above.

Some new vids, may have already been posted...

*and I haven't bothered to compare all the local retailers yet.

Yes i agree and i still think it is very overpriced.

What i would like to know is why they decided to leave the SD slot out? stupid when you think nowerdays even the cheap phones have that slot even if for music.

Am wondering if there is a place unfilled on the pcb for this but still needs software.

Take a look at disassembly instructions. Compared to N810/N900 it has surprisingly more disassembly steps.

EDIT: There is no place on the pcb for the slot.

I have to admit i have not studied much of the manual at all of the N9 so i could well have seen a blank space and not realised.

I do find it VERY strange such a high end device component wise does not have an SD slot.

I will wait untill i get mine and strip it down to make sure.

Officially, no (only lockscreen wallpaper). Unofficially, those screens are easy to modify through hacking some CSS (and this can also be done as themes, though there is no default GUI to switch themes).

I expect that many will share their customisations/hacks as installable packages.

E.g. somebody could easily make a package that changes the CSS to load a specific background image, coupled with a GUI that allows one to change that image.

That pic is no where near good enough to get a close up look and in many cases there is a tiny sub-board assembly that solders down to a few pins, i do not doubt your words but i still find it strange there is no place at all for an SD and of course there is the added problem of an outer slot but it could well be internally inserted as some ram is on laptops with no physical access point.

I would like you to be wrong though .
