I find it odd that Nokia released Diablo with so many open and high-priority bugs still outstanding. I also find it strange that they released it the same day that Nokia announced the creation of the Symbian Foundation. It is questionable their reason for doing this. I'd really like to know really why it was literally rushed out the door with no supporting applications and still a lot of outstanding bugs that are still outstanding. The N810 is a great device, but Diablo is really getting on my nerves. It won't tether to my phone anymore, the application manager still randomly crashes, the OS freezes from time to time, and other small things seem to be plaguing this OS. Maybe Maemo should be rolled into developing a Mobile Ubuntu and the propreitary software components be sourced so we don't have to work around bugs (like the craptastic GPS capability of the device) and the WLAN/Bluetooth drivers. Also, is Nokia is so gung-hoe the device, why not pay for a OGL ES license? The hardware is there, but Nokia is unwilling to pay or at the very least implement it.

C'mon guys, pull your heads out of your asses and give the consumer what they want.
