I do think the OP breaks new ground on the 'problems with then N900' digs, as he's tackling the issue of performance. It's a good indicator on the immature nature of the platform to see that very little optimisation has taken place.

I'm also in agreement with the new thoughts for the response to 'it's not a phone it's a computer'; that is to say "if it's a computer then why are the computer type apps (calendar, email, media player, photos, application manager, etc) so bad?"
