Some folks here are so anal, but they are not aware of it themselves by the look of it. Whenever someone post something that has some resemblance to a previous post, the anal horde steps in en mass, completely ignoring the number one cardinal rule of BBS: Stay on topic.

No one in their right mind prefers one single thread about the N9. But the anal horde prefers one huge "truly epic", "awesome", thread. You see, the whole idea is to obtain looong threads. The fact that 99% of posts in that thread is junk doesn't matter, "truly epic" is good, on topic is bad.

Maybe, just maybe, most people come here to discuss things, not to satisfy the (anal) cravings of the anal horde.

Some of the links from that article are interesting.
I am a bit skeptical about an Intel Atom in a cellphone, but if this is really true then it would be amazing, especially if it can run standard OpenGL (not ES) programs. In theory, we could install XP on it (dual boot) and play real games...
It would be probably the coolest cellphone ever made.
I have read that meego is dished at nokia so I only expext shitty wp7 from them. so you probadly means ava but thats more exacly intel medfield cpu not atom.

Yes. The picture showed up within a day of when it was in the previously linked article. An enlargement of the device showed up a day or two after that. If not directly posted it was certainly referenced in a link.

The question is - How many threads all discussing the same topic "What the heck is going to be in the N9?" does this forum need? Do we need a dozen? One thread to rule them all would put all of the (dis)information in one easy to follow and scoff at location.

Here is a quick list of some of the recent threads. Including this thread, we have six.

It's not like there were no other N9 threads before yours.
I purposely made mine different so don't be calling me a hypocrite. It's not a "look what news I found on a blog" thread, like most (if not all) of the others. It's the only thread that has actually GENERATED news stories. People copy it to other forums, people register here just to write what else they found in the bug reports and whatever else in that thread.
