I'm somewhat confused over the anger I find on this site.

I have had most of the Nokia phones in the communicator series (9100, 9200, 9300, E90), now I have the N900 (I know, it's not/more than a phone, but let's call it a phone for now), and Nokia behaves as they always do ...

The phone is released with pomp and circumstances, shortly thereafter one or two upgrades is released, then the official accessories disappears and Nokia drops you like a wet towel.

Even though I find this behaviour infuriating, I suspect this to be the case with most smart phones. When the user buys the phone it's probably two generations old in the lab and one in fabrication, why use resources on yesterdays news ?

To paraphrase a colleague of mine (normally talking about microsoft products) : You were warned, it said Nokia on the box !

I love my N900, until I got it, I had a smart phone and a Palm PDA (and Palm wasn't behaving much different than Nokia), now I have the best of both worlds

For me the N900 is the ultimate phone (for now), if you don't like it, don't buy it.

If you have bought one, use it, love it and make it better by developing some great apps.

When something better suited for you comes along, buy that.

But stop complaining here, it doesn't help, write to Nokia or something like that.

OK, maybe a bit off topic ....
