Yes. Well, the N900 will be the best selling maemo device ever. I am confident, because it's out there. Being advertised.

If people expect something, throws caution to the wind, makes a decision and... Well, that's how you get married

It may become the most returned, most complained about maemo device ever. tmo-users will probably end up thinking back at the N900 launch as a black period in the site's life. On the other hand, it will draw in lots of new people to stay, including developers, testers, or idiots like me.

What worries me is that after the N97 spectacle, it's not good if the OS "Maemo" because of the N900 gets associated with "the most overhyped yet underwhelming phone ever".

It's a great machine. But I am not sure it should have been marketed at all through regular channels. Not when it lacks features like "list missed calls".
