I get how it is at The Register, but it wasn't funny. If he said something about who owns an n900 ("Basements across the world imploded this morning") instead of how many, it would have been funny. Instead, he was just being a dick by implying that the n900 wasn't even a good geek device. He exaggerated the wrong characteristic and thus it was just an insult rather than humor. Maybe he was just having an off day; I'm sure he'll get 'em next time.
