You said it was "billed" as for early adapters and developers. I think that is untrue. I think it was "billed" as really cool and worthy of weird advertising. That doesn't translate into "developers" to me. 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.
