Its a good time to leave, step 5/5 is complete. Products are not on the market yet but internally the work is done (except bugfixing). For me it seems natural to quit at that point, searching for something new.

Never had that problem but probably people who do not need proper routing app on their N900 do not care. Also has it come to your bright mind that people tend have different levels of priorities for functionalities. So, yes some people give shait.
Also IMO you just donīt get it. Some people here do not care at all how you or this being called "end user" uses their device.
A:Worksforme
B:Not for me and because of that you should listen me!
A:What?
B:This and that and this here should be done this way
A:But I don't need or use features what you would like to have and I use this solely for purpose x y and z.
B:Butbutbut other devices in this price class do that kind of stuff easily.
A:So why donīt you buy those devices?
B: (Broken record mode enabled ad infinitum and Nokia apologizer card to table and instant "win" of argument)

What game plan? I do not care anyones game plan only thing what I care is myself and what I can do with this. If something doesn't fullfill my needs then I change. Simple as that. I have zero commitment to any brand.

Not sure if this is related, but Elop is taking charge of Nokia's smartphone unit on tuesday, and kicking Anssi out of Nokia's executive board.
Finnish source, don't know if there are any in english yet.

Please choose your words wisely then. In the end devels and users who are able to customize and do magic with n900 do not care so much. My point was that to these people Maemo surely is not failure as you falsely tried to generally say. How many times has it been said that N900 is mostly for devels and people who like to live on "edge" (you can make humor out of that as usual)? For example I would never ever use this for doing business. For that I use bare bones phone with standby time of at least week and OS that is mature.
Flagship? Any references for that?
ps.
Why you like to keep your style of writing on provocative & flaming side? Ever thought taking it back couple of notches to more thoughtful and analytical?
It would be simple to make an honest ad, btw: all you would have to do would be to tell the truth, THEN do the amazing BS graphics or whatever. Why doesn't someone try it?
I know you aren't the marketing department. But the N900 was never marketed as only for people who wanted to risk way over $500 on a hope that their cell phone might work decently.
I was here for the earlier tablets, so I wasn't misled. I never found the N900 difficult to use. I don't do any gee-whizz tricky stuff. I don't need to. It works great.
But I think that saying the N900 was never meant for ordinary users is not true, and I get tired of hearing people repeat it. Show me the ad that says that.
