At least personally I find it very hard to read as such, but it is very easy to read it as something that was intended to create friction and bad atmosphere.

If you post an opening like that to a forum where a lot of people disagree with what you say, the most probable outcomes would usually be:
- thread lock
- total silence
- whining, whining, whining (as the call, so the echo)

I'm not sure which of those would be for the win, but the chances of anything great coming out of it were slim to begin with.
The point its not overwhelming, there's a seemingly a 50/50 split with people agreeing and disagreeing with the guy's comments hence the length of the thread. (yes some of his comments were fingerpointing and pointless, however the main thrust of his point was sound).
In general it seems any dissent about the N900 on this forum, even if constructive seems to get attacked/ and a lot of forum members get very defensive.
In my opinion what Nokia have done is be very disingenuous, a la N97 - when they very recently said they would never act the same way as they did with the N97. (Im not saying the N900 is as broken as the N97 when released but there are definite parallels).
I love my N900 but am massively frustrated and disappointed with it too.
