If Nokia drop support for our N900, and maybe also Pr 1.2 isn't real, then why should Nokia users keep trusting Nokia and dishing out large amounts of money to buy their products just for it to be absolute in a couple of months?
This is my first Nokia phone in a number of years, if they drop support for it, I'll surely be buying from a different brand, for myself and for the people in my company, so I doubt how much Nokia will benefit. Also i believe that Nokia should keep us updated and well aware on whats happening regarding our phones and updates, rather than leaving us waiting and just speculating.
Another point is how do they expect to compete with Android and iPhone when they're not developing new applications, games, etc. for Maemo? and if they are developing them, still how do they expect to compete if they're moving at such a slow pace? Don't get me wrong, I love my N900, it's just I'm not satisfied with their service, Even messaging them for problems, support etc, they take ages to reply and then just reply telling me that they don't provide support for my location, then why do they sell them here?...

Freedom of speech? This is an online forum. Like any other forum you either abide by the rules and respect the forum culture and conventions or you don't abide and get thrown out. This is not a Nokia forum, either, so we here will not miss you as a customer (on the contrary, actually). As I have mentioned before, posting here like any other forum is a privilege, not a right.
Would you go to someone's house as a guest, start whining and complaining, put your dirty shoes on the coffee table and demand you have things done your way? Go to one of the appropriate whinging threads instead if you want to complain.

The UI is already there. I haven't yet had the time to explore why the video button shows up when I call my phone from the Asterisk console (I misplace it pretty regularly and that's how I find it), but not on other SIP calls, even with video enabled softphones. It might be a codec negotiation thing.

Nokia dropped the N78-3 like a hot rock. The last update for it in the US was 21.002 (10-03-09). Elsewhere in the world 30.0.015 was released to take care of the issues not addressed by and those issues created by 21.0. That was 13 months ago. The phone works okay as long as you don't run into one of the unfixed issues. The phone had been released five months when Nokiausa stopped selling it and less than a year when the last update arrived. That is what "not supported" looks like.
Nokia is continuing to support the N900 by updating Maemo now and releasing Meego in the future. The future looks bright for the Type RX-51, not the "dropped like a hot rock" treatment at all.

True. But if it's going to be released in 1-2-3... months....there is no reason to stay with N900... it was one of the decision making point - quick support from Maemo team. Now it feels like there is no development except couple of applications...
We still suffering from bugs everyday of delay in firmware. Any announcement would be nice, you know just to decide for yourself whether you ready to wait and stick to this OS or move on.

I'm ready to speculate: tonight is the night when PR 1.2 would be available for download.
I have a feeling in my guts that I may be right (or could be the beans I had for lunch).
