Okay, done. I have written to Nokia UK support. It would be brilliant if a few others could do the same. Here is the link to their contact us page
I think 95% of the complaints with N900 are due to lack of two features:
1. Lack of flash player 10.1
2. No turn by turn navigation in Ovi Maps
If only Nokia could break its silence on these two issues, that would do wonders for a thing called customer satisfaction, that Nokia seems to have forgotten the meaning of.

i suspect we will get more joy from pointing out to the bbc that no-one really needs flash 10 - while a number of their fee payers need it to be flash 9
There must be numerous other devices that can't play this video as well, not just phones so .....

Well for some reason I can now play BBC News Videos 
I had sent them a online form mail from my desktop, got a stock reply back, then did the same again from my N900 (thus supplying flash & browser agent info) and lo.... or maybe they were playing about with the feeds?
Still all seems okay for me....for the moment

Now if we could only get them to correct the playing live streams http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbcone/watchlive/ which even on a 1150Mhz overclock device only play in a choppy manner. Life would be sweet.
@rizbert, don't know where you found the online form to contact the BBC but perhaps you could give them another nudge to fix them, as you seem to have the magic touch for getting results.

I still can't play BBC News videos, though I can play iPlayer now. The trick is to use the pop out button (the second button from left, next to the full screen button), which would open the video in a new window and then that can be made full screen.

For the form, follow the 'contact us' link at the bottom of the bbc news page, then choose the website feedback link, then 'technical problems'.
