why couldnt Nokia make something as simple as apple did for the iphone. 'RECOVERY MODE' any idiot can restore there phone after an failed update. i hate the iphone and what it stands for but that feature for me is so important. what happens if my phone finishes its warranty and the same thing happens??? bad luck i guess

This is so annoying! I cant even power up my phone. Its just sitting there saying 'Play Me.' Then It teases me when I turn it on. The NOKIA phase comes on and the light brightens then.....POOF the screen turns black!

I dont think its the battery but I never flashed it in the beginning. I used PC suite to reinstall the firmware. It froze at 1 sec and now Im trying to flash but its not working

At the current stage, N900 is probably only for power user. It's major focus is not on how 'easy' to flash (for an experienced Linux user, it's not too hard). There is no excuse for Nokia to make it easier to use, however.

Talking about QA, even the defective rate is 0.1%, every 1 thousand devices you will get one failure. And often defection comes in batch, you might be really unlucky one.
