That's probably it. These "shiny, shiny" people shouldn't be here. The N900 wasn't meant for them. Android was. The iPhone was. It's like a group of people who bought tickets for some violent B-movie and by mistake end up in the theater showing Visconti's "Death in Venice".

The one and only reason I bought the N900 is that it's a device based on a free GNU/Linux stack - the same software I run on my desktop. Literally the same software. I buy the N900 (and will buy future MeeGo products) for ideological reasons only, the same way I use GNU/Linux on my desktop for ideological reasons only.

Whatever happened to target groups in marketing? Why would those "shiny shiny" people even believe for one second the N900 could be possibly for them, too?
