To be honest, the N900 is great, but constant reboots kills its usability completely. Didn't think of it at first, thought it simply was due to some software or intermittent connections. But, this has been going on for weeks, and still no update of any sort or shape.

N900 = 900 reboots each day.
I have had mine 4 days and only had one random reboot yesterday when I tried to play a video and it just rebooted. My N900 had already been slowing down for hours though, I think there is something iffy with qtirreco as its super-slow at times. So I suspect it was caused by something I installed not Nokia.

Granted I also rebooted it several times myself due to telepathy-haze getting stuck with "network error" but you can't blame Nokia for that either.

I sympathise with people who are getting random reboots but its either bad luck being in an area with incompatible cell towers / WiFi routers, or its a hardware fault in the N900. Either way, its a hard nut to crack and I think calling Nokia useless for struggling with it is a little unfair. Yes if I had the problem I would be pissed too but I am sure Nokia are doing their best to fix it and clearly it is something they did not experience in testing.
