meh I prefer resistive touch screen, any other software problems with the N900 can be fixed by the community

Except the parts they can't.

Re: Why all high end devices have something stupid in them?

Its what's left out that is usually stupid.

E.g. Lobotomised Bluetooth stack.

Implementing a proper bluetooth stack is too dull for the "super-smart" android developers

That's like removing the thumbs from your hands and saying:

"But I have 8 fingers - thumbs are redundant and what would you use thumbs for anyway?"

E.g. "Cut/copy and paste"

Hello? the 80s called and want their feature back.

It's laughable that Microsoft is actually proud to announce that "cut and paste" will be available in the next Windows Phone update.

That's like designing a steering wheel that only turns left.

We seem to be entering the "Regressive Computer Age".

Features are so last decade - removing functionality is the new kewl aid.

But they need to remove features so they have something to add in the next version.

Name an application, and somebody will name a requested feature for it. If you want to add something in the next version, there is no need to remove something in the previous version.

Everything can be fixed. But fixing is like a million dollars. Trivial for a behemoth company like Nokia or the Linux community, impossible for a small village like us. And only one is handy. And he's Amish. And hammer's got a hole in it. And he has the runs.

I kid, I kid.
