No, we are not ignoring you or the N900. But yes, we are busy we plenty of things around Maemo 5 and of course mostly around MeeGo 1.1 for Handsets. Flash 10.1 obviously ain't a trivial piece of software as you can see from some examples of our fellow competitors. Claiming that you have it doesn't mean it runs smoothly...
You're welcome Peter. Thanks for replying. I presumed there are also other folks working on many different projects at Nokia, but when it comes to the N900 it just seems the majority (probably unintentionally) is silent. Nokia doesn't talk about it as much as their other products. I understand the N900 is not for everyone, eventhough you've tried hard to break that barrier, but knowing time to time Nokia hasn't abandonded it would feel more consolatory.

I am happy to hear that you are still working on things regarding Maemo 5. Developing MeeGo is obviously a big challenge for you, since it will become one of the core elements of Nokia in the near future. I understand you need to polish it as best as you can. So far, the tablet version of the OS impressed me alot, seriously alot. The mobile version not so much to be honest.

You are right with Flash 10.1 being a challenging feature on all fronts. It sometimes crashes even on PC, not to mention on the handhelds we have seen having it so far. But with the rapid progress of software and technology you also have to understand that Flash 10.1 on the N900 is a must have feature, not only because it is a mobile tablet, but also because competition is smart and fast. Many users have expressed their upset over this issue since the showcasted demo on the N900 very long ago, because we haven't recieved any real update on the situation since then. Hardware of the N900 isn't a problem. In my eyes, the N900 is Nokia's best product to date. Hopefully we can look forward to Maemo 5 updates soon.
