so, sorry pal, but WHAT you think simply doesn't matter
Joe and Jane Doe do have to like it, too
rephrase: Joe and Jane Doe do have to like it
period

a mashed up N900 won't do and NOKIA seems to know it
dixit Rich Green: an "elegant hardware"; they wouldn't do that for us, would they?
Well, the intent of my comment was that the E7 hardware is not sufficently advanced for me to be interested it replacing my n900. Of course you can't go by the the clock speed alone and there are many other advances and features in the E7 that can make it tempting. But for now, I'm happy enough with the n900 to wait untill something significantly better comes along that meets my needs. A big part of that decision is due to the efforts of this community.

But, believe it or not, I did have one good experience that may indicate Nokia cares about its customers (or maybe even me!). About a month after I got my n900 I lost my stylus. Those of you who have had this happen to them know the futility of purchasing one from Nokia. Well, I wrote Nokia a nice email requesting a replacement stylus and how it is good for customer relations to do so in general. I also happen to mention that the N900 manual clearly states that use of any other stylus may void the warranty, so, Nokia should be obligated to at least provide a mechanism to obtain a replacement. Well, Nokia sent me a replacement stylus for free! So perhaps there is hope. Although, not to start any rumors, the employee that sent me the stylus was probably fired once his action came to the attention of his supervisor...
