jeeze i find it as unacceptable as EVEYRONE - i hate nokia because i bought the n900 for its internet/multimedia tablet premise. Of course, no flash 10.1, and I am pissed off as I am sold down the river.

But the fact is, Nokia doesnt even READ these forums. Nokia doesnt CARE. Nokia has manoevered the community here into acting as free tech support for the n900, and like ALL tech support when confronted with "average" users, they get abused and hence the bad feeling around this forum now. Ari Jaaski doesnt even bother defending the n900 on his blog anymore.

Fact is, you can shout yourself horse and you will STILL get no response. You ahve no legal recourse (unless you really are prepared to sue them, are you ?) and as I stated the community while it provides excep[tional support, is not OBLIGED to help you.

I find it ironic ppl will accuse me of being a fanboy hahaa - but the fact is you have NO recourse except the market place. Go to another company, buy their phone and tell EVERYONE in your network not to buy Nokia. Only when Nokia sees a huge dent in sales will it change.

Any other suggestion or otherwise (i.e. "to be patient") is just a temporary fix. Nokia will NOT care until its sales get dented.

And yes, if Nokia does not change, the company will die - and the companies that DO give a crap survive. This is how the world works.
