As a consumer you always have the choice whether you jump right in and be one of the first to use something entirely new, or wait a while until most of the kinks have been ironed out.
You guys have just no clue what u talking about. First of all, I just bought two units of the N900, one for me, one for my friend. Second of all, I support cutting edge technology and also tolerate somewhat bugs and flaws in new approaches, especially on Linux. However, that does not mean, I am not a fan of working software and a phone which tries to be a computer (and not uses this as an excuse). You have to admit, that things like missing MMS and Portrait modus are definitely due to a lack of man power, which does not mean that any of the Maemo guys have been lazy, that is why I said it "SOMEWHAT implies". I am on your site when it comes to tolerance towards teething problems with such a hot new product and so on, but whatsoever, thinking for Nokia, it is more than in their sense to sell a consumer-friendly product, for the majority of consumers.
