- Internet sync time-out. Why on earth can't the phone sync at regular intervals for all applications together or have sync intervals for all data apps? Why do I have to be always on or disconnected?

This is the first time in 10 yrs that I've been disappointed with Nokia. Please help...

Unfortunately these are not basic things from a developer perspective.

Flash 10 is a political and financial issue between Adobe and Nokia, you probably wont see it on the N900/Maemo

Ovi-Maps works, but is obviously feature lacking - I'd just like to be able to add my own points of interest, then I'd largely be happy with it. Having said this, the code was a rewrite for Maemo according to Nokia, so it's more than probable you'll only see improvements with whatever the next hardware iteration happens to be along with MeeGo. (You may be able to run it on the N900)

I don't really quite understand what you mean with syncing - it's all quite customizable through configuration files, a few applications let you tweak things graphically - no way to escape the learning curve sadly - it'd be better if developers exposed these features more, I don't disagree there.
