Wow, too bad u leave out of a lot bad stuff to make it look better..
Almost no mention of:
- Lack of portrait modes
- An outdated UI when compared to HTC Sense, WebOS or on the X10. Lame default old 90s icons etc
- No mini-HDMI output (so i take 5mp pictures, but can't show those same high def pics in hd on my tv).
- No D-Pad or Trackball
- Lack of profile options
- No custom ringtones per contact
- No Ovi/PC suite for Linux (what Nokia loves open source put money where the mouth is imho)
- Ovi Maps 1.0 sucks
- 3,7" (like DROID) instead of 3,5" would have been ever better (still same size device)
- no internal compass (great for streetnav/augumented reality)
- no e-mail search function (???)
- Ovi Store not live at release
imho they should fire most of the UI team and hire some ppl from Apple, Palm, RIM or Android to catch-up with a 21st century UI.
Besides all this it's still a good device, but could have been better.
Your post is wrong in so many ways, i have to make a list:
there's a first impression thread ("http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=34678). Some people use it for this kind of stuff
many of your problems have already been mentioned on said thread
you make it sound like nobody ever said a word about those problems. just having a look around here shows otherwise. Or maybe you were expecting these things to be said by marketing people (it's their job to say just enough, you know)
how the ui is outdated beats me, all i've heard is praises for it. IMO it's pretty nice
it's not a camera, and how many phones actually have hdmi output. and for that matter, how many have tv-out either?
profiles and ringtone will probably get fixed soon, though i have to give you that, they give an unfinished feeling
maybe a 5" screen on a same size device? better yet, make it 19" (i love my desktop monitor)
There would be more to say, but i got bored
Note to mods: if you merge this thread, please remove this comment. It really will look silly merged
Edit:aren't edits nice? Now my post is irrelevant after changing the OP
