They seriously better not ditch it... release a bleeding edge device then forget about it? This is where nokia always goes wrong... always looking to make another incarnation of the same hardware, forgetting the rest of us...

BTW, what does 'ready to despatch' actually mean? Does it just mean that they have received stock or that they are boxed/packaged and ready to be thrown on the Royal Mail truck?

If Nokia do their usual trick of not delivering what they promised, there is a reasonable chance someone will hack the feature in anyway.
Also I can't see them ditching the N900 quite that soon, as the 5800XM is still getting firmware updates and that has been out a while now.
They are also at serious risk now of of alienating all their fans, as they release buggy after buggy device. Granted, the N900 doesn't sound too bad but people will see its feature-incomplete state is the same as a buggy device. So unless they add the functionality to the N900 people expect (or the community does), who is going to trust them on their next device?
