umm i think its a valid point to complain about product launching and the STATE you launch it in. I think the real issue is, Nokia shouldn't have set a release date so soon without fixing everything up, i mean there are problems in here that COMMON SENSE would have made you realize were issues that needed to be patched before releasing it to the public.

Nokia should not have been so aggressive with launching it early, and by delaying it, it made people (at least me) expect a much more polished device rather than one that is STILL unpolished.

I know people hate comparisons with iPhone OS or Android OS, but from what i remember, when these were launched, there were a lot LESS issues. And for god's sake, Apple and Google have never even made phones before! (unlike Nokia). And for people comparing the N900's poor performance to the G1, cmon, the G1 came out 1.5 years ago or so, you cant really compare that.

I do want the N900, and I really hope things get fixed, but you guys have to stop being so blinded and realize that Nokia has done a very poor job of releasing this product. It's like Ferrari hyping a new car model, then delaying it and then when releasing it, having simple things like, the radio not work, the windows not work, and other electrical faults in the car. You dont want more customers over like this. Even if it IS step 4 out of 5, you're using this step to attract more customers, not drive them away.
