If Nokia does not enable one-handed phone and message function ASAP, the device will be given an unfair view by the media and consumers expecting a smartphone. Then again, since not function out of the box- probably too late.

Maybe we will see a phone centric version with call, home and end buttons as well as a phone centric interface. N900P Yeah, right.
I cant say its their ( Nokia's ) fault if people have the wrong expectations of the device. However I do not see how people who are following its release as closely as most people here could have missed the umpteen previews, videos, actual reviews, etc detailing EXACTLY what the device can and cant do.

If the N900 receives bad reviews because of not being able to SMS with it one handed then the people who pay attention to such a narrow view dont deserve such an awesome looking bit of tech. **** em.
