I am failing to understand why people think that android/iphone is such a better phone. Except for the low amount of apps (which should of been obvious to anyone going to buy a phone from a brand new platform that hasn't historically had any apps - not that I wasn't disappointed with OVI's lack of delivery), it pretty much matches up to most other smart phones. Yes, there are missing features, but for every missing feature you will have a feature that it has that others don't.

For example, people complaining about the lack of contact grouping (something I actually do sorely miss), it had builtin skype support and facebook (and others) IM support long before any other phone did. Could you chat in the background with a skype contact in Iphone 3gs?

The mail client is terrible, but the mail client on android pre-2.0 was atrocious, and on iphone 3gs I used it on a friends device and it was worse as well. The only place I saw better support was the E-series symbian devices.

The video player sometimes has stuttering problems, but support any format under the sun for any 'legally gotten' tv shows. Except for mkv I have yet to see a format it doesn't support (once you install the extra codecs package obviously).

While Nokia's behavior is far from perfect and leaves a lot to be desired (like flash, poor communication regarding meego, OVI Store, etc...), the fact that we are still getting updates and we will get PR1.3 really is very different then almost every android phone which has to resort to modding. (and for those complaining on why there are more mods for android then n900, well that isn't really nokia's fault, but that was expected from a 1 device first time platform).

And lots more, I think people are taking this whole thing way too far. Some people enjoy their n900, some less, some are happy despite its faults, and some are missing a certain feature badly that happens to exist on another phone yet lacked to read reviews if the n900 had the feature before buying..
