So, you get a lot of flack for putting together a list of things you think should have been done right the first time. Well, I think you're right, each of them should have been done right the first time. But it could not be expected that _all_ of these things are done the first time, because as a platform for phones, Maemo 5 is brand new, and no first version of anything is ever complete when the sales starts.
Of the last I'd say critical features are: -Portrait mode -Menu Icon reordering -Quick scrolling
i`m getting tired with people either bashing the n900 or telling people t purchase an iphone whenever it is critized. there is nothing to dispute about the fact that the n900 would be way better if these standard s60 features were included.
