(Edit)DISCLAIMER: Only addresses claims made in english!!!!

The OP says maemoworld.ru is the oldest russian language website dedicated the n900. Nobody has produced any evidence to the contrary and seeing as how the n900 wasn't even KNOWN about until earlier this year, having registered in 2008 certainly lends a lot of credence to his claims. I, for one, believe that he is telling the truth. Not speaking russian though, I don't have much use for the site. I suppose I could use google translate... hmm i might check it out.

You really think that before 29.08 there was no site dedicated to maemo devices for russian-speaking users?
He didn't claim to be dedicated to maemo devices, only the n900.

This situation with people claiming they are the only source in certain language is very familiar here. We did see it with "All about ..." things and other bloggers in English speaking world.

Sorry guys, you are not the only ones and certainly not the oldest community. .
Neither of those websites are dedicated communities with the singular focus of the n900. They are irrelevant to the OP's claims.

N900 is newest one but not the only device in a family that shares quite a lot of similar tricks and approaches. I understand a desire for Ferra.ru to step onto "uncharted" area but it is hardly a news. http://internet-tablet.com/ for example has been covering Maemo for almost 2 years already.
Again, the OP is not talking about maemo in general or previous maemo devices. He is claiming to the first RUSSIAN language DEDICATED COMMUNITY with the SINGULAR focus of the N900.

That is a lie. Case closed.
Ridiculous

No hard feelings meant to anyone. Its late and I'm irritated by something else so I'm taking it out on an internet forum rather than murdering people and causing general mayhem. I apologize.
