This debate has repeated tens and hundreds of times, so I think we must agree to disagree.

I don't expect, I only hope.
It is simple really:

1. Person buys device thinking it is like an S60 smart phone ignoring the specifications or attributing missing features to "omissions" or "will be added later (even faced with official documentation to the contrary).
2. Uses device and realises that the idea of what it does is vastly different from what it really does (and, shock horror, reflects the official specifications and announcements).
3. Comes to the Maemo community site and *****es about missing features.
4. Joins a crapload of similar threads started by people who did the same, thinking that if they complain enough on Maemo.org they will make Nokia change the device for them.

If pointing out the bloody obvious is elitist, I don't care. That is not an insult to me anyway. In any event, there is nothing to "agree to disagree" over; the features available and the device's limitations were made public from the beginning.
