To clarify, I love the N900 and just hope Nokia will let it be all that I HAVE PAID FOR AND SHOULD REASONABLY BE EXPECTING IT TO BE. The price tag warants years of support and upgrades!
Sorry if my sarcasm was too low brow for you. Perhaps I should include a "mature" argument for those who aren't just throwing their toys out of their prams.

I bought my N95 in Summer 2007, in Dec 2008 nokia was still releasing firmware updates. A whole year and a half after the phone was originally released.

The updates didn't include a new version of the OS but included fixes and even new features for the phone.

At no point has Nokia said Maemo 6 would be available for the N900, so why are people suddenly acting like they did? Why are people also acting like this announcement of MeeGo means that Nokia will stop supporting the N900? They were busy working on new versions of Symbian whilst they were still supporting my N95 why can't it work that way with the N900?

Personally I preferred the way I said it first time.
