While we sit and TRYto find ways to gain momentum in making Maemo even better down the line, Samsung has its own Linux based smartphone/tablet device in development. Eldar Murtazin of Mobile-Review has had a chance to review an early prototype, and he's more impressed with the Samsung model
, which isn't planned until 2011, than the N900 which is coming in a month or two.
Samsung has been a strong Nokia competitor of recent note, and this may be bad news for Maemo. What do you guys think of someone like Eldar being impressed with a prototype over a near production device? I know Maemo 6 will probably be on the scene by then, but Eldar also talked about how buggy and crash prone the N900 is, having crashed 24
Is this something we should be worried about?

sachin007, do you have the N95-1, 2, 3, or 4? My N95-2 hasn't crashed since January. VERY stable. What firmware you running? I can't help but think I have a solution for you. What crashes it most times?

Its obvious that Eldar has old firmware on his N900. If you follow the twitter reactions, @qgil and @chansearrington have already called him out on this. Maemo is ridiculously stable I really can't remember a crash on my N810 since Diablo, I can't imagine fremantle being that unstable when it ships.

And, this is the biased side of me but, I don't think Eldar is "someone", anymore (i.e. a person that I should regard with respect, considering his knowledge on a particular topic
).Thanks for the heads-up though. At least I know, now, not to bother visiting mobile-review again.

i think some one at nokia as upset eldar lol
he was talking good of the n900 and nokia and calling the n900 device of the year, but this last week or so i've noticed a big U turn.
btw 2 years is long time away most prototypes made that far in advance never even make it to market and if they do the device changes many times before then.
we will also see the fruits of nokias long term plans for QT, Maemo and symbian come togother by then, then we'll have a whole different ball game.

Rather than discredit him, can someone please just get him the latest firmware 
He's still the guy on the soapbox with a N900 and all it takes is an updated software.
