On the opposite I lived in the north, in Dalian. So I was used to earing the 儿 as much as in Beijing. I feel uncomfortable saying 哪 instead of 哪儿, it's just like something's missing. In most of the textbook I've studied back there (it was in 2008), the 儿 was written.
I remember that in one of the recent podcast (a Qing Wen one I think), I heard someone saying Dei instead of Dui. Is there someone from the north east in the Chinesepod team ? :-)
