These are just a few of the many many that advertised the N900 as a flagship and all the people who thanked you seem to have very short memories ha.
People need to remember the hype that basically conned us.
The above is what people have been basically saying since the start. It was the blogs and internet who hyped this as Nokia's all super phone to fight against Android, iphone.
Nokia said in the N900 announcement that it's 4th step in a 5 step plan and Harmattan was already announced in 2008. Plus we knew Symbian Foundation was going for Qt just like Harmattan was.
N900 was only manufactured in Korean factory(rather than the normal high end combo of Finland + China). The little N900 sold in 2 months compared to something like N97 they still couldn't manage to produce enough of them globally. That should tell something too.


All this doesn't mean N900 could not be called as flagship as flagships don't really even exist like they did before in the N95 time, but it was not meant to be mass production super phone like iphone or Galaxy S etc.
