How To
Just download this zip file Nokia N9 Device Model File:NokiaN9-Device Model.zip, Unzip it and put the “NokiaN9” folder into NokiaQtSDKInstallationDirectory/Simulator/Application/models path in your system like below screen shot.
So after copying this file to mentioned path, you can see “NokiaN9” device model as in screenshot after select it from View in Qt Simulator Control.
I modified the configuration file according to the Image of Nokia n9. Please note this Nokia N9 Device Model is for just fun. Its not having correct width and height that real Nokia N9 Device have. So you application may looks different on Simulator than on real device.
Also the Inner UI of this device model is not look like the real Meego N9 device nor have swipe functionality in this simulator model.

Hamishwillee - Does this now exist by default?
Is the N9 now an option in the Qt simulator? If so, can we archive the article?hamishwillee 06:02, 2 March 2012 (EET)
Chintandave er - Re: Does this now exist by default?
Hi Hamish, No. AFAIK, Nokia N9 like Emulator is not available in Qt SDK. As MeeGo Harmattan has its different Emulator (not Qt Simulator). But Still I feel that this article is not that useful now.

Markkyboy - Incorrect image for N9
The main image for the n9 has been created as a .jpg, when in fact, it should be .png extension. I discovered this when Simulator crashed after I selected Nokia N9.
