Way to be constructive... :/
You'll get a lot further if you make meaningful criticisms, or if you offer suggestions on how to improve it (bugtracker/brainstorm).
-What exactly does "No User friendly apps" mean? How are you measuring how "user friendly" they are? It stands to reason that a given interface design won't suit everyone, but I've seen very few things (maybe two) that I could see being Bad in general. Furthermore, have you tried every single app available, or are you just making sweeping generalizations?
- "Bugs": Yes, it has bugs. Everything has bugs. Things that are brand new usually have a lot of bugs. If you find a new bug (e.g. search first), you can file it on the public bug tracker (bugs.maemo.org), and follow its progress. If you do, realize that saying "this sucks" will - if anything - make the developers less inclined to fix it fast. From what I've seen and heard, the Maemo team has been working like crazy to fix a lot of those bugs.
- "No innovative stuff": Again, a generalization. Do you mean hardware? Software? What? The amount of flexibility it provides is essentially unprecedented as far as mass-market phones go, and that means that innovation can be done by the community at large, as well. For that matter, this is Nokia's first Open Source phone, which in itself is a pretty impressive move for a large company.
- "Device too thick and heavy and still it misses a lot" Yeah, it has a bit of weight to it, and it's thicker than some - but I haven't seen many phones with similar hardware that are much smaller.

Honestly, if you don't like your phone, then sell it -- or deal with it. Ranting on the community forums won't make your phone more to your liking, and it just annoys people like me who end up reading your posts. However, given the Open nature of this phone, you could do something constructive instead. If you find a bug, report it. If you have a concrete feature request, file it on Brainstorm. If you don't know how to do something, then ask. Heck - if you really want to, you could even convince/pay a geek you know to work on something for you. But please... if you don't like it, and want to complain about... go somewhere else. We're happy to help you and take your input, but this sort of post is just frustrating.
