>> Trolling example: "Just sell your N900 and get an iPhone 4!"
I find this definition of "trolling" hilarious, because Nokia's misrepresentation of the n900 in its advertising is the leading cause of disappointed ppl with differing expectations coming to this place and venting. If a user bought the n900 expecting lots of apps in the Ovi store, or expected the phone to "just work" or expected active Nokia support with frequent patches to correct bugs and they do NOT care about hacking/tinkering/modifying their phone or even know what open source is, then they will be disappointed with their purchase - no amount of community support can resolve these mismatched expectations because these issues are not something the community can resolve.
In these cases, the appropriate solution IS for such users to sell their n900 and buy another phone, as their expectations have to be matched by the correct product. In this case might as well do it sooner rather then later while the n900 can still be sold for a good price.
If this is defined as "trolling", well it seems denial of reality is the new official norm here then.
