You cannot tell me they didn't market the N900 like it was "THE" device to have. They made it seem as if the phone was going to be great. We need only to look at the N95 8gb to see it. Wasn't that phone marketed as a mobile computer? So it would only make sense that if you like Nokia products and you didn't buy the N96 or the N97 that the N900 would be the logical choice. Don't get me wrong, I think that it is better than most but some of the problems that plague the platform are deal breakers for most. I drive a lot in Chicago and I would always lament having to keep the n95 in the car to see if there is traffic somewhere. I have to actually surf the web to find stuff close to me as opposed to "having an app for that."-All this while driving is hard, dangerous, and wreckless(by me). They might not be holding it back just because but they are losing customers and showing themselves in an unflattering light- whether intentional or not.
