Some companies are the exception to this rule though. I've been generally very happy with Apple in the past - no website snafus when it comes to device registration (as happened to me with N800), fast repair turn-arounds, and when the product is buggy (like the MBP), from anecdotal evidence (I don't own one) they'd swap out the laptop for a new one (some people have had theirs replaced more than once).

Since Nokia is seen as wanting to be the next Apple, it's not too much to ask for that level of service. Hopefully things will improve soon. Otherwise they might end up like VW (good cars, good service in Europe but inept State-side)
