Permission to use granted by Nokia Taiwan! Nokia just presented the Nokia N9 smartphone which is the result of Nokia's MeeGo effort. The device is rumored to run on MeeGo Harmattan and ship in Q3 to folks in Europe and boast a 960 x 540 screen resolution. These facts sadly weren't confirmed during the press event however they did give quite an impressive walk through of many of the operating system features.

First off the hardware is stunning, the glass fits seamlessly and curves over the bezzel, they've also included swipe gestures for navigation so there is no need for a home key. Regarding the hardware the screen polycarbonate is the same colour through out so if it scratches they wont be visible. Also, the screen material used is designed to give great antena reception so you won't have to hold it in any special manner to ensure great quality. (This was a nice quite dig at Apple and the only one I picked up at during the walk through, good job keeping it classy Nokia!) The inclusion of NFC is also a nice touch for pairing of devices as well as jumping on the mobile payment bandwagon in a timely manner.
