Deal with it. We understand you've bought a defective N900 and the Nokia Care centre gave you a bad time, but it isn't worth it to keep wasting your time trying to deflect people from their love of N900 just to get back at Nokia.

You should learn to accept failure in your life and move on. It does you no good to waste your time here. Go, iPhone community needs you, we'll miss you.
See everything you have posted here is so wrong I don't know where to start.

But let me start by saying I love my N900. Every single day without it is torturing me. It happens to be a great device but unfortunately made by a useless company. I was using my N900 for 3 months without a usb port and had to send it in cause I bricked my device and needed usb port to reflash. How did I brick my device? I got addicted to modding and didn't know when to stop. Unfortunately I eventually I modified a file which meant the device got stuck on the Nokia boot screen. My wife warned me for months to stop messing around with the N900 but it was just so amazing I could not stop.

I have been without N900 for over a month and still come here everyday looking for latest developments and have list of things I have to try out when I finally get N900 back (swappolube, theme customizer, fast modding script being top of the list). Everyday without my N900 I am cursing Nokia for depriving me of my darling N900.

Have to add that before I started modding my device I actually hated it because of its tons of bugs and lacking features. However, modding makes up for that and a lot of the mods fix some of the bugs (such as overclocking helping with my web browsing where I used to have to constantly deal with grid lines).

Now some of you have responded to say you are being objective when you say the iphone is crap. Sorry but what you have described is not objective it is absolutely subjective. It is crap for you. Do you really think tens of millions are buying it because Steve Jobs told them it is amazing? Yes Apple marketing helps but this may be news to you millions of people love the iphone and if you gave 20 million people an iphone and N900 more people would actually prefer the iphone even if it was made by HTC let's say. Or they had never heard of Apple.

What you think of a device is not objective, it is the exact definition of subjective. If you are unable to realise that something a vast number of people love is a good device (for them) just because you hate it that means you are incapable of being objective.

Look at Wii for example. Many fans of HD gaming absolutely absolutely hate it and think it is a piece of crap. However, it is Nintendo's best selling home console ever and is loved by tons. That an Xbox 360 fan thinks it is worth less than **** does not make it a crap device. It is only crap to him. That is his subjective view. An objective view would tell him that though he hates it, the fact that so many actually love it means it is a good device (for others).
