I assume that was sarcasm? I hope it doesn't crash as much as he says. My iPhone almost never crashed and any phone I have I expect to operate in similar fashion.

"My iPhone almost never crashed".... I assume that was exaggeration.

No it wasn't. I hardly ever had to reboot mine and it saw heavy use.

Hardly anyone gives the reviewer much -if any- credibility for reasons explained ad infinitum in this thread whereas some early birds applaud the stability of Maemo. In any case, we'll all experience soon enough "the Truth". The saga unfoils..

I've had 3 different iphones (1 2.5g, another 2 3g (1 16 gig and 1 8 gig) purchased from diff. manufacturing dates and all of them were HORRIBLE. They crashed SO MUCH because I'm a hard core user

good to know, especially since he is using a Nxx model, not a N900, which is alot newer... im sure in the final there won't be any problems at all...

Is "heavy use" even possible, sans multi-tasking?

I don't want to attack Eldar since I believe he is trying to do his best as specialized journalist. Still, last week I asked him about the version he was using, he said latest (would have meant w38) and now it turns that was w34.

I understand he is in a situation where he can't disclose everything but for this reason it is really difficult to see what is he playing with.

So many screenshots. Is there any with Settings --> About product? (even if the game would continue: it's damn easy to fake a version there if you want to fake it).

Anyway, what counts are the impressions of reviewers and real customers with devices out of real sales box. In the meantime we can all get entertained with lectures like these. As others said, not many elements new in this "review" if your read this forum and listen Nokia World keynotes.

I don't like the current state of this thread. Got a bit derailed and misses some respect. Eldar might be a bit in trouble after his early preview, but in the past I always liked his extensive and deep reviews - at least he puts some real work into it, not like most other sites with superificial "reviews".

And the linked "new" article really seems very recent - at least it does not even yet have an official english version.

Let's be gentle.

Not just entertained, but getting some ideas about the remaining rough edges that make such an experienced power user like eldar uneasy?
Some quotes from his review:
  • No MMS, no matter how ridiculous it sounds
  • (Audio player) other disadvantages include the lever is adjustable sound on the screen, it is too small, awkward, easier to use the side buttons
  • (Video player) Unfortunately, there is also affected by haste, in particular, the developers have not thought buffering the stream, in the first 10 seconds of video ragged, swinging.
