A customer should not have to be informed indirectly like that and rather it should have been CLEARLY written on the device's specs/features instead of having to come to the conclusion myself after I had made the purchase and when it was too late to return.

Define "market research" and why you can proof (not: assume) that Nokia only considered the N900 a test, contrary to random community members calling it so *after* the amount of sold devices was not fulfilling.
Good luck with actually proving that and finding a lawyer who wants to try this. Still wondering what exactly you plan to sue on. Listing specific laws to potentially apply would be a good first step.

Also wondering: If you had bought a Microsoft Kin, would you now also consider suing Microsoft? :)

If you'd rather support over open source then you picked the wrong phones :D

Unfortunately, it seems 'you' can't have both :(

Why shouldn't you have both? If it really was open source, a lot of the bugs would confidently be squashed by the amazing community we have here. Unfortunately, not everything in the N9 is open but there is plenty of freedom.
Anyways, as consumers, and especially regarding all Nokia's loyal consumers like people at TMO, we deserve better than "WONT FIX."

This is more like a hypothetical type of thread. I'm curious if other Nokia consumers feel the same.

We should take up a collection and offer Nokia a bribe to continue manufacturing and developing maemo and the devices it will run on.

As a whole, the system is great.
