Because if people were going to buy an N800/N810, they knew 90% what they were going to buy. But the N900 is just confusing to those normal users (which is a lot more than the percentage of techies/geeks). You can argue as long as you want about it, it's facts. If Nokia want to keep up with the competition, they better make the next device adequate for everyone - or they will get them all sent back.
While I agree that perhaps this should be better advertised to users, Nokia has NEVER EVER represented this phone in interviews etc as anything other than a device aimed at tech people. The responsibility for deciding what features are necessary for you BEFORE you buy the device is on the end user. A simple hour or so spent googling and reading this site would have revealed most of the shortcomings (email issue excepted and thats fixed already for the next firmware).

There is a growing trend for people to want to be spoon fed all information and to believe what THEY choose to believe rather than getting the facts.

Now if you will excuse me I have to get back to packaging up Proftpd.
