@zerojay the device is not released yet, so final software does not exists. I suppose he had tested a plenty of pre-release devices and knows something about relative instability of different pre-release OS-es. Besides, he also seems to be informed about Maemo updates/releases cycle (talks about Q2 2010 major update), so he could estimate Maemo5 October state with high degree of accuracy.

P.S. I read Mobile-Review regularly and I've never heard anti-Nokia bias from Eldar Murtazin (contrary to that, he seems to be a bit too pro-Nokia). Thus, I think either it's the objective state of affairs or some kind of Nokia's own play to frighten non-geeks from the product.
