Cool. So it's Nokia's Marketing job to sell, and ours to make sure they're selling what they're announcing (or, in other words, if they're not lying). That's what kept me away from MS products, but OK.

You guys don't get it. Research? For 30 minutes? Dude, it's not a buyer beware world - it's a 5 second attention span one. "Looks cool? I have the money? Cool" is most people's mindset. Telling them it's cool because it runs Linux and it's free and whatever - most people don't care. And unless Nokia cares about the possible fallout of huge returns and bad image resulting from it, they should market it appropriately.

For geeks. And tinkerers.

But sure, whatever - let the brand name erode and have a bad reputation. People always come back, right? /sheesh
