Seriously this thread is like watching a bunch of emo kids at a death cab for cutie concert. Yes the N900 will become outdated, Yes the new Maemo 6 device will be better, Yes even the Mona Lisa is falling apart....but has your N900 lost any sort of functionality in the meantime? Do you really think your phone will be the rage 12 months+ past purchase? Do you think there will zero compatibility between Maemo 6 and Maemo 5, all this lament seems to come from the fact that yes, what was once new, will one day become old. Stop being so damn emo and enjoy the best mobile device on the market right now and for the immediate future(ie 3-6 months). If the new one comes out and has more bells and whistles that you really desparately need, go get it. I came from a N82 and I was thinking for a cellphone I really don't need much more, I love the camera, and I can function with the mobile web fine if need be. However I did own a N810 and loved it, and was interested to get my hands on the N900 and I'm glad I did, the contacts integration alone won me over.

FFS stop feeling like a petulant 14 yr old boy with a new stepmom that gets more of your dad's attention, and be thankful for the greatness in your hands right now.
It is obvious that you did not get my point.

Here again especially for you:

A 2 month old device has bugs. They need to be fixed. These bugs are marked as "Maemo 6". There is no indication if / when the 2 month old device will be able to run Maemo 6.

Conclusion: We do not know if / when the acknowledged bug will be fixed for the N900 or not. This is unacceptable.

Regarding your NokNok link: It was stated numerous times on this site that there is neither confirmation nor denial that turn by turn navigation will run on the N900. All it states that Nokia plans to make it run on Maemo, But which Mameo version? And will N900 be able to run it if it is not Maemo 5?

So why all this fuzz? Only because Nokia - so far- does not communicate. And Nokia could remedy this easily. Just communicate. This was the point of my post.

And please refrain from remarks like "petulant 14 yo". It just shows how immature you are.
