It makes perfect sense that following on from the 300, they want to improve the firmware rather than just sort bugs. Maybe we'll see portrait mode in the release. What else did the 300 request? Anyone out there can tell us?

What I would say was a tad 'silly' on their part was the timing of the 300 in the original release plan. Deciding to completely revise their release plan from "After the 300 respond we will sort bugs" to "After the 300 we will make significant changes" was very late decision making. If that had been even a very faint possibility, then the Official Release Date should have been set for three months after the summit.

I guess that's what Dr Jaaksi was taking responsibility for on his blog.

i think that the popularity of n900 was a big surprise to nokia. especially after n97 had a lot of complaints that it doesn't work well. and it seems they have to make sw lot more better to not disappoint majority who doesn't have a clue about OS2008 and older maemos.

Yep I think that's probably true. Except this is a huge cell phone global giant we're talking about. They're not supposed to be surprised. That's what's silly and disappointing. ;)

But I can live with it being even cooler. And having missed this week, it will arrive at an inconvenient moment whenever it appears.

I think they also requested an official declaration that THIS IS SPARTA!

Sorry, couldn't help myself

Just as long as it wasn't badgers. (Or worse, badgers in sombreros...)
