Shame, Nokia is repeating history again. I buy Nokia to not have an iPhone like experience.

Nokia's failing was not hardware nor OS ... but rather a short term focus on anything they did. As one poster put it, you can bet what is the norm for one device is a non-starter in the next. Continuity is important when people are dropping more than $400USD on a phone.

Frustrating thing is a MeeGo or a Maemo phone should of been ready by now. They should of created a phone with a minimum spec that fulfills MeeGo requirements and then gone on the record to update it to MeeGo once complete and release it now with an interim Maemo OS which would of kept the attention on Maemo OS going a bit longer and give us a potential PR1.4 or PR1.5 down the line. Now people have a DOA N900 which has no future, might not even get a PR1.4 seeing how I'm having more connectivity bugs now with PR1.3. Also MeeGo doesn't have a reference destination, also the specs on the N900 are being worn out ... mine even has a broken headphone OP-Amp which Nokia techs are too stupid to find under warranty and it is costing me in sending it to them all the time. Christmas and people want to trade up the phone and Nokia has no alternative ... and no the N8 or E7 are not alternatives to the N900. This is leaving Android as the only option especially now with Gingerbread supporting SIP natively just as the N900 did ... come on Nokia step up don't copy.
