Sorry, but I have to vent to some people who would understand. I came across this article from Tom's Hardware, which is a pretty good tech site for computer topics and DIY (some of their columns and commentaries like this one are really bad though)...

http://www.tgdaily.com/content/view/33284/118/

It makes it sound like the N800 is a deficient latecomer to the class of devices created by the iphone and Intel MIDs!! I ("Not Ignorant") submitted a curt but well deserved "get your facts straight" comment, but it hasn't been posted yet. If it doesn't go up, my respect for TH is severely diminished.

So sad that even the tech press falls for the marketing and pr... the Nokia IT may not get the place it deserves in tech history

I hope you reminded the little girls over there at TH that unlike the iPhone, the N800 does VoIP RIGHT FRICKIN' NOW?

We should have had a "who can be nastiest and still get posted" contest.

Well, your post was quite polite as it had to be as a member of the underdog team and wouldn't do so well in that contest. So I made an effort as the IT historian...

Damn, I was polite???

...

I blame the diplomatic face I had to put on earlier today...

EDIT: the editor continues his streak of disingenuity in the annotated comments. Let's see how far he's willing to run with that trait...
