And this is for a device which has, since its inception, been geared toward tech-savvy customers, who would guessingly be able to figure out how to update the goddamn thing. Also, note that it's not even marketed as a phone - it's an internet tablet with a phone application as far as I've heard. I'm finding the decision increasingly hard to understand.
The launch-through-release part of the marketing of the N900 has been an absolute farce.
