To summarize even more:
That's really all you have to say. Your argument is that device X has more recent hardware than device Y, therefore X > Y.
No problem. I'm not in your situation, as the tasks I'm interested in don't need the most recent hardware. And, therefore, since that is your whole argument, I'm not likely to ever see eye to eye with you...

I am not asking anyone to see eye to eye with me, I would just like people to be informed. This thread has proven that the majority of people speaking are NOT informed.

To summarize: After reading though this thread numerous times, most of you seem very uninformed about the product you're so content on bashing. To the best of my knowledge they do not have a restocking fee.
If you are wanting to explore mobile technology further I suggest you buy an iPhone 4S, keep it at 5.1.1, jailbreak it - configure it how you want, and use it for 30 days. If you don't think it is worth the few hundred, return it and get your money back.

EDIT: and to be fair, I also think that iPhone being able to edit hd video / photos is also useless. Can't imagine why would one want to do that on such a tiny screen when your laptop seats on the desk. And being forced to do that on the go? I mean, why?

Different people have different mobile phone usage and needs. It's nonsense to say "buy an iPhone 4S" to everybody, as well as "buy a Nokia N9" to everybody.

I have been messing around with mobile technology since the Philips VELO 500, which I bought new in the 1990's, with a 75MHz MIPS processor and a full 16 shades of grey for $800 or something along those lines. I like to experience new things, if I was going to get a tablet - it would most likely be an Android instead of an iPad - due to the fact that I need my phone to be reliable, I don't require that level of reliability out of a tablet.
I was one of the first people to get the N900, from the NYC Flagship store and you all knew when I replaced it with an iPhone. I have 437 posts on talk.maemo.org and have been thanked 262 times. I am not bashing the N900, from an objective standpoint - there is no competition it's like a HAM radio vs the internet. The argument for the ham radio would be: "When the internet goes down I will still be able to communicate!" - While that is true, it doesn't make the ham radio a better communications tool. That analogy might have been poor, I am tired.
It's 4 year old technology, reference Moore's Law, it will say this, hands down, it was the best smart phone of it's time. That is without debate in my opinion.
