1. Wifi access points (oh just hack them! zomg! which you do on your laptop.... heh)
2. iPhone (all the screens are bad, just google it. blogs are truth!)
"...Not widespread"
http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/09/a...screen-issues/
Apple proactively found users and replaced their phones immediately NEXT DAY SHIPPING. Not 30+ Days later like Nokia. Nokia LOST my tablet after 34 days and decided to send me a new one.
3. Marketing (its so easy to hack a new kernel into your new N800! you can have your rss feeds disappear! your email client will randomly lose its ability to function! you can use a screwed up alpha web browser that mangles text input, and requires ini changes for easy scrolling!) perfect 30 second spot for the IT.
Market what? I'll help Nokia make a few advertisements for the N800.
"Visit YouTube. Don't hit play though, make sure its done streaming or else you'll have a 3-4fps slide show!."
"If you want an up to date browser, go ahead and install microb (FROM THE MAKERS OF FIREFOX). Unfortunately, you can't scroll correctly... it will just jump around to text fields and crash miserably on dynamic sites like jellyfish."
"Your email on the go! Once. Then thats about it."
"Get all your favorite news from your favorite sites! Twice. Then it disappears."
"Sync all your favorite music and podcas.... oh nevermind."
"Install GPE Suite so you can have contacts, but don't worry about syncing them though! Its so much better to have everything out of sync. Say hello to old friends you never thought you'd call!"
"Watch your favorite videos! Just make a few tweaks to your kernel so you can avoid terrible tearing."
4.
Patched and fixed. Within 3 weeks. Lets not get started on IT2006 updates.
Bye. Don't let the door hit you in the *** on the way out

I've only experienced one stereo Bluetooth headphone (I live in a somewhat isolated place) and that's a Logitech. I ordered it because it has a separate broadcasting unit that plugs into any device with a 3.5mm headphone jack and violla....wireless. Problem is, the high frequencies are quite attenuated compared to any half-way decent set of wired phones or buds. I figured it was just because they are Logitechs (even though they weren't cheap.)
So, is there a drop in fidelity with bluetooth stereo headphones?

Boy, trouble in paradise already?
As most of you probably already know, a limited quantity of iPod Touches started showing up on store shelves at Apple retail and Best Buy early, and apparently a large enough number of them have been showing up with bad screens to start several discussion threads at iLounge (three or four threads), Macrumors, and most notably Apple's own support forums. Worse yet, Gizmodo and a reviewer from the Washington Post obviously got bum screens on theirs and Engadget has picked up on the story as well. It seems the common complaint is that the affected screens don't just wash out blacks and dark colors, but wash them out to the point that the video almost looks like a photo negative, even viewing the screen straight on.
This dun look good, Lucy!

A few dozen bad screens and everyone starts ragging. No one makes a perfect device, not even Apple. Look at how many complaints there are on this site for the n800. It's bound to happen.
