Well, there's the announcement (not happened yet), then the release date (a few months after the announcement) then the potential delay (pretty certain with a new OS like Meego) and we're talking almost a year I think... might be wrong.

But ultimately it is a matter of whether the issues that *any* smartphone have (and they all do) are a deal breaker for you? If, lets say, the camera and speakers had been rubbish on the N900, well I could live with it, but answering calls and email, well for me a deal breaker.
