I just don't think thats the case :0) For me i looked all over the phone market to find a phone i wanted. I searched long and hard on reviews and phone review comparrisons narrowing it down to the HTC pro touch 2, N900 and the iphone. After reading many reviews i discounted the HTC and after playing with and looking at the spec of the iphone i ended up choosing the N900.
Now i was worried sick as its less of a phone and more of a computer lol that it would not be enough for me but to the contrary i have been amazed at what an amazing device it is hence for me it was the right choice.
Yes no doubt nokia will make a better version of this but then does this same ethic not apply to every phone on the market which gets upgraded periodically by the manufacterers?

Nope happy as can be, I knew what I was getting.
Hell even the pre-production phone I had was making me go crazy with joy that I could FINALLY get a phone I could customize in a way I never been able to do before

And yes, I will buy the next Maemo fuled computer/phone from day one.

No phone yet have ever been close to this perfect piece of hardware from day one, just look how damn crappy HTC phones been in the past or early android OS (scary) and I donīt evn want to mention how bad the first iphone sucked...
Exactly 0 apps at release and how fun is a iphone without apps, yea thatīs correct itīs worthless...

Goober's Dream (to the tune of "I Dreamed a Dream" from Les Miserables)

There was a time when geeks were kind,
And their voices soft,
And their words inviting.
There was a time when phones were fine,
Each ringtone was a song,
And the song was exciting.
There was a time when it all went wrong...

I dreamed a dream in time gone by,
When hope was high and life worth living.
I dreamed that MfE made my phone fly,
I dreamed IT gods would be forgiving.
Then I was young and unafraid,
And dreams were made and used and wasted.
There was no ransom to be paid,
No mail unsent, no port untested.

But the admins come at night,
With their voices soft as thunder,
As they tear your hope apart,
And they turn your dream to shame.

I strapped my new phone to my side,
It filled my days with endless wonder...
I took provisioning in stride,
But it was gone when admins came!

And still I dream it comes to me,
That we will live the years together,
But there are dreams that cannot be,
And there are storms we cannot weather!

I had a dream my life would be
So different from this hell I'm living,
So different now from what it seemed...
Nokia has killed the dream I dreamed...

If he's accessing via the internal mail client, that doesn't work. The biting irony is that it's a dumb oversight, copy/paste works everywhere else (including editing messages) whereas on the iPhone it took until 3.0 to support it at all.

this is a known bug, 5033, which is actually dependent on 4619, which in turn has been fixed internally.

you can expect this to be resolved with the next firmware release.

Just a reminder: the talk forums include an Ignore List, which can be helpful if you don't want to see a particular user's posts. You can also get to the IgnoreList via the Control Panel.
