you know what guys, as much as we all like to praise our n900 i have to agree somewhat with this post. i mean, when i first got my n95 i felt like the top dog. i remember saying the iphone was all software but no hardware which is why i had gotten the n95. it took nokia months to release first firmware for unlocked phones (not usa version) and it seems like they are repeating same thing again with every new phone they come up with. from 5800, n97 to n900 it's all about new hardware with them but the software sucks ***. yes maemo is fairly new but it's been almost 3 months since release with no ovi store yet, and no firmware that was supposed to come out at the end of last year. i guess what i'm saying is that i'm never buying a "new" phone from nokia again when it's initially released onto the market. maybe after months or so when nokias native software works (pc suite, ovi store mac compatibility etc) really dissappointing since i like nokia and yes their hardware is awesome but lacking in software will bring down the phone. i dont like apple and their close minded ways but they are good at working with what they got (crappy hardware)

I wonder at his self esteem that he feels the need to get approval from others for a phone. Personally I adopt the attitude - if its right for me - who gives a flying fark at a rolling donut what everyone else thinks.
Then I fire up openarena and wargus and browse the web in glorious desktop format and I forget to care about anything else.

But seriously though why are we all replying to the OP when he/she/it only have 1 post in this whole forum and it's copied from somewhere else... This is an obvious troll who's intentions are to start a flame war + debate..
This has been said many times and it's like now known in the tech world that:
The N900 isn't meant for the mass market..
The N900's OS Maemo 5 is still new.. Maemo is still in the early stages in getting discovered by the mass market..
Yes I would love to see the N900 grow and mature until we have SO many useful apps/games... etc.
But for now it's doing much better than lots of the devices out there straight out-of-the-box!! I don't see devices out there that has an FTP client in there.. I don't see devices that can be a server.. I don't see devices that can be a universal remote (except the iPhone, but even that you have to buy things for it hardware and software).. I don't see devices that are capable of multitask like this or browse the web like the N900... and the list goes on and on..
In conclusion I am being dumb enough for also replying back to this thread! LOL.. No but on a serious note.. for whoever has doubts about their purchases I can only say to them is to think about what the N900 can actually do straight out-of-the-box and calculate how long has the N900 been released to the public and then compare that with other devices and app stores... (how long did those app stores take to become how they are right now)..
Oh and one more thing PEOPLE LEARN HOW TO BE PATIENT for God's sake! Seriously people now-a-days have 0 patience which really bugs me alot! (and this is coming from a 20 year old!)

a lot of posts on here seem to assume that people with gripes didnt check the product info before it was released. I did - but lots of what was promised doesn't exist. It wasn't until 2 months after I preordered it that Nokia announced it wouldnt work on 3 sims - even tho I specifically checked this at the time that the order was placed.
As for comparing the iPhones update history to Nokias, I tend to agree that this is the first release so I probably expected some bugs, especially knowing Nokias track record of releasing phones that don't do what it says on the tin!
Suggesting Nokia will lose its lead as a market leading phone maker, which phone are we talking about?? Nokia haven't held that honour for a long time!
Nokia need to concentrate efforts to:
1 make this phone work as it says it would on the pre sale material
2 fix bugs, especially the 3 sim issue and mms shortcoming as its biggest priority - yes i realise some of you dont think mms is necessary but for very many users, it is.
3 Make it work as a phone. If some of you guys want to carry around a phone and an N900, and find that acceptable - personally I think your expectations in life must be fairly low.
4 Stop brown nosing up to Nokia. They have a duty to provide the phone/device whatever you want to call it, as promised. Don't accept these shortcomings else Nokia will sit back on their laurels and do nothing about it.
5 This is an extra moan - can people PLEASE stop posting duplicate posts! There are hundreds of threads that all say the same thing!!! Can't we have a sticky for problems and maybe a poll on what features people expect? I find it a PITA that I have to trawl through soo many posts that say the same thing just to find something interesting.
cheers

Why are these posts not locked or deleted by the mod team. I come to this forum to find info and help others if possible. However the place is getting crowded with trolling and moaners. All very well a constructive criticism post, and there have been a few good ones, but this is an example of badly worded dross.
As bonerp says, maybe just stick these in a junk area or the one junk moan post.

I'd love to be a mod for 10 minutes to do a little cleanup around here.

Now we have some hot shots here & on every other forum(some 20 yr old) now since they don''t have a thing to defend or any fact to make a point what they do is try to divert the issue and focus on the way I post my threads and they will analyze the lingo and will end the topic by sayin that they''re much happy & they r patient. We''ll once again as the poster above mention in his post about ya''all {{3 Make it work as a phone. If some of you guys want to carry around a phone and an N900, and find that acceptable - personally I think your expectations in life must be fairly low.}}
At the end of the day my self or ppl like have been loyal nokia clients and just want Nokia to deliver what it promises.
