Whoa there! You make a comment in bugs that is not useful to Nokia/Maemo (but prob is if they actually read it in context), you'll get a lecture (making a useless comment filling up space while he's, uh, filling up space). Then, if you say to be more respectful, some random Nokia employee will grab an account, defend his partner (more useless space) and end with a disclaimer that his opinions don't represent Nokia, blah blah. Never saw that dude they ganged up on again. I bet I know what happened to his phone (assuming he didn't toss it out of his moving car).

I don't think Maemo/Nokia were nor are ready for the people who this phone may attract beyond those who spend all day working bugzilla. Lecturing your paying customers is major FAIL.

Why not more uproar? Choice. It's that easy. No BT. No visible urgency around it (or other major bugs). Getting lectured by Nokia/Maemo if you make the wrong entry in bugzilla and just a little review of talk/bugs it becomes obvious much of what you would think they are working to address are sitting there as WONTFIX or pushed to Maemo 6. The majority of people who spend this much for a phone (call it a mobile computer if they want, but a decent laptop or netbook thingie is cheaper) want to "just use it" - everyone expects a missing option or two that they were used to on their previous phones. They even expect some 'glitches' aka bugs. But, the aggregate of missing features, lack of setting granularity, lack of apps, and many, many major and fairly major bugs is greater than what most will deal with. The mapping application alone is huge - the N900's is major fail. My wife won't live w/out Google Maps.

So, many just return it and don't have to worry about it.

Who knows - just speculating.
