this has already been covered here. yes n900 wasn't for average consumer and no, you should not be naive with ads.

I haven't seen such commercial that implies n900 being "the best phone ever", care to share a link to such ad?

e: I quess you didn't mean this one:

btw this is probably the best ad (engadget wrote an article about it if I remember correctly) when talking about advertisement that reveals a real nature of a device.
