Please, you usual folks, come post the same stuff here again. Because you know we just have not heard it enough.

Sigh.
Why not another one of these topics? Don't like it.. don't read it, certainly don't post in it to keep it being fresh. heh Why do people sometimes do ironic things, I ask you?

irony is the haters are becoming the salesmen
Well, this might speak to two things:
1) Nokia has managed to nab a good number of people who thought they were getting a phone that was competing for features with the Android and iPhone. I wonder why? (**cough**ovistore**cough**Ovimaps**coughcough**) I certainly didn't see this phenomenon when they pretty much created a relatively new segment of product in pocket-sized INTERNET TABLETS that they could have owned and grown. Now the N900 seems like another ME-TOO to the iPhone.
2) Rather than working with the community and working with customers as a matter of product support, Nokia is happy enough to give people reasons to feel like saying things like "you didn't research your purchase" or point them elsewhere to another brand. I think it's APPALLING that Nokia wouldn't at LEAST try to support and communicate with customers to find out what expectations are and try to satisfy them--I mean hardware, software in addition to being a producer and a trusted brand. They haven't been very good at making their brand trustworthy lately.

this is not a problem of "research" is a problem of unfair (deceiving) marketing and of bad product (buy bad i mean not working 100% as expected)

problem is that they all do that

we want new products and the market is in a hurry to beat the competition
Agreed. I was being sarcastic toward the people that keep repeating that damned "you didn't research your purchase enough", whether or not they're right. Nokia should INTEND to keep customers--even the ones that wandered into their store and errantly bought their product. They should come through as pleasantly surprised, not pointed at, laughed at and told they bought the wrong thing, all while Nokia continues to sell these through stores and advertises it as a supposedly incredible mobile phone.
