I can be patient for something that breaks new ground like this. Maemo is good for consumers. It empowers us. Just look at this community. People can actually fix stuff they don't like about many of the software apps we use.

I'll take a company that empowers me -- even if there are rough edges -- over a company that takes away choices. Closed source takes away choices. And everything about Apples takes away choices. I don't need absolute perfection in execution of every small step. I just need a good product that is as open as possible. No company and no product beats the Nokia N900 on those counts. (I'm not saying Google's Android is bad, btw.)

Companies are just people. Companies are not perfect machines.
This has nothing to do with consumer satisfaction. Building a powerful device entice consumers....it has nothing to do with consumer satifaction as far as being informative, reliable and trustworthy.
