Example: How do you feel about Obama? (This is not a political statement. Do NOT try this poll at home!)

1. Obama is the Messiah.

2. Obama has some real problems.

Obviously, the same people willing to respond with alternative 1 are the kind of people who would be willing to say that the N900 is "fraking awesome". So, if your aim is to construct a poll giving option 2 a huge advantage, you have demonstrated the algorithm.
Fairly sure, I stated in my OP that this was merely a test to get the statistical numbers.

You have three options. Either choose that you like the device, choose that it doesn't fit your needs and you got rid of it or don't choose at all.

Bringing ideological examples of your frustration into a simplified numerical poll is simply unjustified and unwarranted nor was their any mention of an "issue" or "problem" with the device in the OP. Your confused assumption/conclusion only adds to the useless, baseless, merit-less trolls roaming these forums, looking for attention wherever they may find it.

Like I said before and I'll say it again. I did this simply for the statistical numbers - I am an N900 owner, I love my device, didn't find recent polls (after people have had time to use their device and get into the intricate details of such) of the aforementioned topic.

If you'd like to be negative and bring up in-accurate ideological examples of a person's post without knowing what you're talking about please do it somewhere else.
