It is perfect at what it is. A tiny linux computer, with wireless data, and some phone capability.
I'll give you that the hardware specification are perfect (i would like a screen the size of the n810 though) but the native Nokia software is so easy to improve, there is no valid reason for it to fall so short of providing basic usability function.
The n900 phone I am happy with i hardly use the phone, but I need a PDA and a computer - the PDA side is rater sad. the media player the PIM are barley adequate with out a descent pause for movies and audio books, a search function and task descriptions.
I made a list of all the things that could easily be fixed and would make the phone a perfect phone for me, if only I had a team of 2 dedicated software engineers who had assess to Nokia's propitiatory bits.
the list if Nokia is listening.
