I'd like to note this is not exclusively the case. I'm not exactly an active contributor I'd be the first to agree (due to my personal circumstances, I do hope to slowly turn this around), but I do help others out with problems where I can, especially concerning Qt, and whatever other stuff I can do.

And if it hadn't been for that more mainstream appeal of the N900, I'd not be here, simply because prior to that, my attitude was always '*ANOTHER* device? No. I want *ONE* that does more'.

And the n900 did that for me, and I'm fairly sure, quite a few others too.
