No multi-million dollar deal can stop Nokia from releasing its latest flagship phone carrying a new OS – the long awaited MeeGo! The Nokia N9, which just passed FCC a week before, looks even more alluring as promotion video of the phone somehow got into the hands of Pocketnow. What exactly does the video show?
The slick smartphone from Nokia was shown attractively on the promotional video. You can spot almost everything what makes the device drool-worthy – for a Nokia phone that is – which includes the physical QWERTY keyboard, 12-megapixels rear camera with Carl Zeiss optics that come with LED flash and autofocus.
You can easily confuse the trailer for another brand though, as it flashes the tagline “Our Next Sense”. Of course, some Taiwanese brand has been using the Sense tagline for a while now – but we shall not judge until we see more of the N9.
Considering the last MeeGo device didn’t fare too well, Nokia will be pinning its hope on the N9 to score some moderate success in US soil. We fail to see how the company can excite the already saturated market though. Maybe there’s life once the Nokia-ified Windows Phones are out. If there’s anything to learn about the smartphone business is never to count out a company. Just look at Motorola now.

There’s some good news about the HTC Sensation – and there’s some equally bad news. Nothing too upsetting, mind you. To start off, we’ll start with the bad news.
