What??
My computer-savvy mother was able to use Maemo5 right from the spot.

Device fault not the OS.
My N95 was dying as fast as N900.

I don't consider Ovi Maps as a part of Maemo5 operating system.
It's a part of Ovi services add-on an OEM adds on the device by default.

Do not agree.
Maemo5 is a great OS. But N900 using it is not so great device - as a package.


I know it's easy to put an equal sign between Maemo5 and N900, because there are no other successful Maemo5 deployments. But for this community Maemo5 != N900. (Ask N8x0 users running Mer )
