Replace the model numbers, and this was the same arguments that many people used for the N810 and the dead-on-arrival Diablo update. Once that came out, nothing else really got updated. Skype? Gizmo? Rhapsody? MicroB? The OS?

Nothing got updated some 13 months afterwards. Did I complain? Hell yes. Do I complain to this day? Yep, on some days like it just happened.

But you know what? My N810 still works just fine. I still use it. I get community based apps that are better than some of the original apps - Tear beats the pants off of MicroB, imho.

So yeah, whine away. Get angry. Start a few petitions. Request that the N900 be removed from the stores. It's happened in the past. Nothing happened by whining.

Get over it. Sounds evil, but I've been there too. Enjoy what you got now. Nokia got one on you. They got me twice - 770 and the N810. I didn't pull the trigger on the N900. And yet I'm still hanging around... thinking about what's next.

Same thing as Nokia. Do I like their "start, stop, restart, drop" method of software support and continuation? Not one bit.

And to be 100% truthful, a big part of me wants to point fingers, laugh at you guys. Real hard. But know what? There's no use in that either. Stick around this community - for however long it'll remain and enjoy your phone. It works just as great today as it did before these announcements.

Cooler heads prevail. And it's not all known quite yet.
