It needs to compare to all the other devices and excel at what it does. If it fails to do that it's only Nokia's fault, not ours. No, I am not saying the N900 "fails".
Except that those buying this are not the average Smartphone user for the most part. Given the lack of association with a carrier, this phone/mobile computer isn't going to attract that kind of attention here in the US at least. (Europe might be a different story) Those of us who have been following this also know that this phone has not been overhyped: we know its strengths and weaknesses for the most part. It isn't like Android, which has taken about a year for it to actually start living up to the hype.
