@ allnameswereout,
I don't want to see the mistake made of saying the device can't be for the mass market. IMO, this device is priced just like the biggest mass market smartphone, coming in at $50 CHEAPER! (I won't name the device since everyone seems to avoid saying it, and we pretend it doesn't exist, which I find nonesense, but who writes the dictionary...)
The US market is driving all of the world's growth trends right now. This market grew up on AOL, Windows 95, and browsing while multitasking. The N900 will be strikingly familiar to MOST Americans once they see the dashboard as the Windows taskbar, clicking outside of windows takes you to the desktop, and apps run concurrently like on Windows.
The PC experience is second nature in the US, which is the only market the N900 will face questions in. The rest of the world pretty much loves Nokia, and will buy it like candy. We have to let people know that the UI is simple, easy to use, and NOT geek centered.
