Actually your understanding is not correct. To avoid possible confusion I am placing that as a plain statement. No reference is being made to other's use case on this. Your assumption, yes it is an assumption, has been corrected once, do not start trying to place your own viewpoint as my stated point; I don't believe that I have done the same to yourself so please do not disrespect others on this forum!

I believe that I merely pointed out some inconsistencies in your original post. The point regarding applicatiosn and operating systems was supposed to help you deliniate your langage in a technical discussion.

I didn't mention 'lack of research', call you ignorant or state that the device was wrong for you.

I stated that you were free to add the functionality yoursef if you wanted it. This is an option available to the Maemo community as a whole and something that I believe is fairly unique amongst large hardware manufacturers in this product placement.

Asking for functionality is one thing, stmaping your foot and shouting loudly that you have been dealt an injustice is another matter. Many people have bought devices in the past that have not lived up to their expectations, myself included. The choices available then are either to return the device as not suitable or live with the device on the basis that it does most of what you would like.

If you are unable to add the functionality yourself and you would like someone to add this for you then there are ways of doing this but emotive posts are unlikely to gain favourable responses from the developers in the community. Try posting a request for an application instead, think about your requirements and post them logically and clearly. You can add a brainstorm and encourage others to vote for it. A popular solution that is well thought out is likely to gain suport from developers. If not the maybe it's not important enough for the userbase as a whole.
