I got a N800 from buy.com 2 weeks ago. It booted up only once and was dead. Dead, dead, dead. And I then also realized there is a wide spectrum of dead. That included, exchanged with a fully charged battery, plug it in overnight, press the G spot, press rapidly in successive sessions, charge between 3-5 min but not more then attempt after 2 min and 30s etc etc! Still no sign of life. Anyhow, I stucked the N800 into fridge, NOT freezer, you know, the plastic bin for vegetable for 20 min while I cursed Nokia and buy.com with the most foul language I ever learned. I took the N800 from fridge, like a physician checking some deadbody from the mort, carefully do the USB thing, bingo, it turned on and upgraded the software to 2007.51-3. It has NO problem ever since.

One small/stupid question, 2007.51-3 has been out for ages, why are vendors still shipping this kind of Nokia? Why? Am I unsatisfied? No. I am MAD! A responsible manufacturer should recall ALL unsold N800 and upgrade, or, to save expense, advertise a rapid exchange upon problem, or to sweeten the deal, if problem, will exchange with N810 instead, something like that.

Edit: a small typo, I mean "will exchange with N810WE instead", and explain to the unhappy custormer that there will be a small wait while the N810WE is being made, so and so forth.
