The step 4 of 5 stuff was supposedly said at Maemo meetings. I don't think the typical purchaser of the N900 went to those meetings, or should have.

I just get tired of hearing this stuff about being billed for early adapters and developers only, because I think it's a crock, and always have.
Actually this was all over the Nokia site but agree, it wasn't highlighted. The response is more a case of explaination of the device placement, not justification of the marketing.

There is however lots of information and most of the reviews also used this as a descrption so it isn't exactly new (Google Entries). I think the annoyance here should be irected at least in part to the retailers as well.
