I don't care how he got his device, but I am trying to lend credence to his review... but which one?

As I posted earlier in this thread, the first I heard of him and at that time, the first I heard the purported specs of the N900 was when he supposedly said something to the effect that the N900 would be a "game changer" for Nokia.

When I asked about him in the thread about his pre-announcement review someone replied that he was "the most interesting man in the world" or some-such. Later on someone else reported that Nokia stock price was moving up and others speculated that his "glowing" review was responsible for this.

...then Nokia officially announced the N900 and the specs he reported were pretty much the same. He earned respect in my book at that point.

...then all of sudden he reports of a future Samsung device that will "blow the N900 out of the water".

OK, no pics, no collaboration from other blogs at the time, plus the fact that it will come more than a year after the N900's planned release.

Now all of a sudden, his N900 crashes several times a day.

All I asked is what happened.

No disrespect. I am actually hoping that one of the members who chimed in earlier about knowing him or who considered him to be a colleague would ring him up and ask; Yo Eldar, what's up with that bro? ...and report back to this thread.

Then maybe we can end all this speculation about motive.

I mean for all we know Nokia could have a crack team of unauthorized handset trackers in black helicopters hovering over his location purposely jamming his device...

...it could happen.
