That's what make iPhone, which is successfully targeting the majority. I don't have a problem with that. So your point is...

Will you accept an iPhone fanboy citing (Apple's design decision of) not having a hardware keyboard when they fall behind in typing speed? Let's not pick and choose as you deem convenient. These products all have compromises, none of them are universally perfect.
I see your argument, you thought I meant in my words "Nokia compromises on nothing". Nokia is not God, they must compromise on a lot of things. We should not waste time on obvious.

My question "Why should Nokia compromises?" refers to the issues of our discussion, not everything. Should I detail in every sentence to explain the obvious? I hope not.

I also think that you will have to eat your own words when this deficiency is fixed in the future (unofficial MeeGo for N900, maybe).
Which word should I eat? Did I say anything that sounds like 'N900 has fully utilized its hardware to maximum usability experience'? I just said you made an unfair comparison with iPhone.
