I will end my visits here with this summary:

1. N900 is an very powerful and exciting device
2. N900 is fast becoming a marketing disaster for nokia
3. The real problems are not all of the bugs people are screaming about but the approach nokia took to develop the sw!

Clearly the community that developed this system in no way understood the very simple needs of their real stakeholders! They honestly thought this phone was just for them and are now insulted because people dare question design priority decisions!

It’s that attitude that has helped me decide. whatever fixes may or may not come in the next few months the many many users who are screaming need to understand. . . your screams will be heard but the community still think your mad! why . . . (said in an very echoing voice as I run down a very long corridor) . . . "because its not a f...ing phone " ha ha
Quite true, the tablet people see this as a tablet primarily. Us phone people, me coming from N95, see this as a device similar to that phone/mobile computer.

But as more of us come in here that tone will change and Nokia will have to give more and better efforts to fix this up and add the missing features.
