Perhaps because the company behind the phone won't provide adequate or competitive customer support?

Maybe, but what does it have to do with Nokia?

Saying support other places is better is fine, it's objective and people can read such a statement as opinion. Saying there is no support is something different, it's a statement of fact (or non-fact in this case). The OP is saying there's no support, which having 3 releases in under a year would seem to debunk..

Toyota makes great vehicles, so does BMW. I would buy either over a Chevy any day. What's your point?

Fact: Nokia released a device with software that was not finished. Period. It is missing features that anyone would expect from a smartphone. Period. They have bungled any sort of OVI support, from ovi services integration, to the ovi store. Full stop.

Don't quote me anything about it being a "step 4 of 5" device either, Nokia didn't put that anywhere on it's advertisements when it was trying to get people to drop $600 on a 4/5th complete device.

Don't try and say it's not a phone, it's a mobile computer, because if the N900 is a mobile computer, then so is every other high end smartphone which has more features and functionality. Three half-baked bugfix updates does not equate to the major OS upgrades that Android and iOS devices are seing.

The worst part is that they are fixing it, but if you want the fix you are expected to drop another $600+ to get it. Is it really worth the money when you could buy a Motorola (I still can't even believe I can use Motorola as an example of a company doing something right) and get major software updates? The Droid is getting it's 2.2 update this week, along with all the newer models. HTC is trickling out updates for their devices as we speak.

If Nokia wants the high end market they are going to have to at least match what the competition is doing. If not they will fall by the wayside as someone else takes the market lead.

lol, follow this thread on the official Nokia forums with them promising OVI suite support and watch as the months goes by...:

People like you:
* Condone Nokia to mistreat its customers
* Treat genuine upset customer posts as irrelevant
* Have no perspective on the history of this situation
* Are probably not very open minded and/or selfish
* Can't spell
