how many things were people supposed to check without actually owning the phone? I mean I checked that there was a chess app before buying, how could I know that it was barely usable and that you could not even distinguish the pieces? lots of stuff that a person would not know until they actually played with the phone for a while. btw I have a friend who plays chess and is a linux admin and I showed him the phone. he then asked to see the chess app and as it was basically unusable he asked me to install different one. when I said there were no more choices he just laughed and picked up his htc evo. I applaud this forum and linux in general but no way am I jumping on the "thank you nokia" bandwagon regarding this device. that's almost like having stockholm syndrome...
