Look, I'm an Apple fan, first and foremost. Yet even I knew what the N900 was and was not, with a few minutes of research beforehand. It bugs me people do absolute no research and then are annoyed when the thing isn't what they expected. It is perfectly clear what the N900 is and is not when one understands the Nokia Internet Tablet/mobile computer line of products and the Maemo 4 of 5 step. I do agree some of the PR stuff Nokia has done is confusing, but that doesn't change the N900s design goals which clearly did not define a consumer-grade smartphone, but instead a mobile computer with phone functionality. That is why it is step 4 of 5. Next step is the consumer smartphone. Nokia told us all this, months beforehand. Deny this all you want, won't make it untrue, though. If anything, this is definitely NOT marketing ********. If anything, it is the marketing ******** and media attention that has muddied this issue. The roadmap and device specs announced and communicated outside of marketing ******** clearly support my position.
