Bo11ox, quite frankly.

Good luck getting Mac OS X 10.4 (or later) to run on any Apple G3 or G4 powered kit, or even late model G5s. The OS won't install, even though the kit may be capable of running the OS. Why? Because Apple prevent the OS installing on their old hardware - it's intentional and somewhat cynical. To me this makes Apple far worse than Nokia, although in fairness to Nokia they did at least have a change of heart and extended 770 OS support after considering the community response.

Comparing Apple with Nokia is not always a good basis for an argument.

Support for the N800 and also 770 will continue once this new device is launched - that's been stated by Nokia already. Getting all bent out of shape because a consumer electronics company releases a new device n months after you bought the last model is just fcking stupid - it's a fact of life. Get used to it. If you don't like it, don't ever buy anything and keep waiting for the next new device that's "just around the corner".
