And if you read that ****ing thread, the mere second I jumped in there, I was hit with one jackass saying "we're not here to test the N950 for you people" when all that was asked was whether or not (unbeknownst to me that same question was asked multiple times) provisioning was supported.

A simple bullet-point list of what's there, what's not there and a comparison of what's going to be there (N9) would alleviate a lot of that. Collecting the information and placing it in a very visible spot would give people who don't want to answer a ****ing thing, or don't want to "test" for the community, whatever semantics they want to hide behind... then so be it. Copy the list URL, paste the URL, leave egocentric and snarky comments out of it.

Regardless, if this is how general curiosity is greeted, then consider me no longer curious. No time to address this kind of wasteful, masturbatory conversation. It produces absolutely nothing and I don't like spouting off ad nauseum how that type of attitude serves only the geeks in question.

Some folks are willing to entertain us that do not have. Share their findings while heavily coding forward to further understand the platform. Daperl is a good reminder of a person that's in the community, showing and answering his discoveries, not breaking the NDA about what's considered a negative, clearly communicates to use pleebs that have to sit and wait while speculating what is it like to have a Harmattan device.

Meanwhile, Nokia ain't advertising jack ****, are explaining even less than jack ****, and seemingly are killing off any and all efforts to make the N9/Harmattan a device that we'd want to buy by crippling each and every ****ing step of its release via rigorous undermining strategies that make finding info we'd (possible, future customers) would look towards to research what our next device will be.

I'm not one of these people that will blindly say "I'll buy it!" without researching the **** out of it first - helps me avoid that whole "Did you do your research?" geek mantra of when they rather not answer a damn thing.

So yeah. I'm curious. I'm active. And if that is met with opposition, then there will be no wonder when less than a few months after the release of the N9 it doesn't receive anything else, TMO finally closes down and us geeks are sitting there with a fancy, polycarbonate shell device with no support whatsoever.

No worries though. I promise you I will not ask any more questions about the N9, N950 if it is met with this much resistance. Thankfully, my Android curiosity is met with equal curiosity and willingness to tinker and answer elsewhere.

Re: Limited testing abilities - yes. I'm almost willing to bet that Zeh(whatever) I was addressing has a rather limited setup. I rarely see answers, just more vague commentary. Same for a lot of others. That was about their testing environments, don't skew it to be anything else.
