I doubt that. Dope makes for better code, in my book.

Re: Someone should make a f--- poem on this crappy brick

So, how about selling it to me for $100? You'll both get money and the reassuring knowledge that from then on it will be used by someone with an IQ well past a door knob.

Open application manager, press update, select the Maemo5 update. If it fails, its because you installed incompatible devel software written by community members and is entirely unrelated to Nokia.

If for some reason the above is too complicated for you to understand though, Windows 7 x86 flasher is about the easiest thing in the universe to use. It's one command line, it's not hard. And before you ***** about "its non user friendly, why am I having to enter commands" and various other QQ, consider that the whole point of the Flasher is for power users/developers - If you're clueless (hint: you are) you should be using the pretty colourful updater provided by NSU or Ovi suite.

Clue, this does not always work. For me the flasher was the only thing working when I wanted to update. I'm no noob when it comses to linux, been using it since waaay back and have been working with UI-programming for several companies. The nokia update sucks biiig time. Ovi most. OTA is excellent, when it works.

But the phone is great, though nokia never has been good in the business when it comes to updateing FW:s. Never.

I wish someone would buy it off me but i still will make a loss :(
Everyone considering buying the nokia n900, dont! Please read this and instead invest in an iphone/android phone from samsung etc instead. Nokia is run by a bunch of meth addicted idiots who do dope while coding this sh-t software for this sh-t phone(the flasher utility). Apple & google own nokia in this market anyday simply because they can make things user friendly. And please dont imply that user friendly stuff is for idiots. No. Its for making our lives easier, which was the purpose of this black-*** brick in the first place. I would burn the n900 and film it with a new phone from some other company if i got a free phone.

Thanks this made me laugh my *** off. (p.s. even my GF find the n900 simple)
