Maybe snobbish was a bit strong, but sure it is like a clique of developers. This could be a great device but in many ways the community tends to turn people off. As an example, I had a few friends, one has the N800, and my wife, a Finn, try to go through the forum and see if they could find helpful hints. After just a few mins, they got frustrated and said that there is no way they would even bother to search for help here. This is not good as they are mainstream users, not techie types that only want a device that works. I am an engineer, not developer and feel that this forum is for sure slanted at developers and the users are sometimes left to fend for ourselves. For this device to take off, it has to appeal to the man in the street, not a closed group of users. My $.02.
