I'm not arguing anything. To me the complaints just aren't 100% reasonable. But I'm probably more easily pleased than some.

Meaning they are upgrading the FW of packed phones before they ship to customers? Maybe, but sounds unlikely based on my knowledge of production, shipping etc.


Like what? That is your right of course, I just don't understand what is so wrong with N900 that voids all the really good/excellent/geeky things in it. Is the scrolling really that bad then?
If and end user is not happy with a device, this is resnoble. Look im not interested in arguing with "fans" of the device who will love it no matter what.

I am talking about standard no programming end users which will pick up the device and have expectations based on the marketing and other nokia devices they have used.

They may well be processing firmware updates which would have explained the month + delay after the inital test review units.

Personally I am not bothered if there is a stutter and checkerboard on a device when im trying to scroll down a webpage like im on drugs lol.

Its just the basic stuff that nokia phones have had for years which the n900 does not have. Google maps, an office application which allows you to edit , decent email support which works correctly. Being able to backup all content on the device easily and restore without crashes e.t.c.

I know this will just start another arguments with a bunch of fanboys but its a fair comment as an end user.
