Sorry, dude - Nokia dropped the ball on this one. You can either live with the rushed device and workaround the bugs (that I believe will be fixed soon-ish) because you're a devout geek, or return the device and get a refund. What you can't do, however, is deny the harsh reality - it was rushed, and it's not a mass product despite being marketed by Nokia as such.

Remember, most people don't go around forums or read Engadget or whatnot - they go to Nokia's shops or the Nokia.com website. And in the shops it's marketed with huge posters as "Your net - always on" and that appeals to everyone. It's the same shops that featured ZERO posters for the previous Nx00 devices, and that had them in a corner instead of being on display, at the store's center!

But hey, I'm going to buy one - I'll live with the bugs
That's the thing though - this phone isn't for most people..
