thats one fix that is needed yes.
But if i have to say what is the most lacking software piece on the N900 it is modest.
Yes i find it if more horrible then Ovi Maps.
IMAP support is really bad. No imap-idle (which is for a always on-line mobile device a must ), no sent folder support, it downloads way to much for example i tried it when i was in another country, the kilobytes where flying over the wire for almost nothing new..
Also UI wise i can go on and on... Its just one of the weaker parts of the N900..

I understand this could be a desirable feature, but I hardly know of many smartphones which support even video calling.
You have newly released Sygic app for this. Also, I understand it should be included as on any other Nokia phone.
Why not? I can put any video on any folder I want with the file browser

Every phone I have had, has had 3G video calling...and before my N97 the last 2 were basic dumb phones, still with said capability
Not the same thing...I want to make my own folders, with my own titles and as many as I want...not dictated by the app.
Why not Ovi like all the Symbian phones...I want to sync my contacts and calender etc
But thats a paid app...Ovi maps is free, and this is one of Nokia's flagship phones...and ALL Nokia's are supposed to have free voice guided maps
True...but I would rather have a native version provided by Nokia, built into the Conversations app
I have read many times in these forums that MMS is not going to be coded/provided for the N900, but none the less, it is still a basic function/feature that should be there.
Of course you can make folders in the file browser, and place your videos within, but what I was meaning is there is no ability to display those folders within the Media Player app itself...it just shows all your videos...the only choices you have is to view them by Date or Category.
Exactly as Sachin007 said, 'although there are alternatives as you have indicated we have to admit that nokia has to provide the basic features mentioned'...and this is true.
Just because 3rd party devs can fill the gaps, does not mean Nokia should not bother otherwise to code and provide basic functionality that should be there, especially given the price and status of the phone/tablet.

Althoug there are alternatives as you have indicated we have to admit that nokia has to provide the basic features mentioned.
No ovi suite compatibility
No dedicated ovi store
No free navigation for the most expensive flagship device
No mms
The phone "app" is not as customisable as symbian
Even though the n900 has many more features when compared to others we still are missing some basic functionality.

I have read somewhere that modest will be a newer version with many improvements. Will have to wait and see ourselves.
Anyway lack of IMAP-idle is ridiculous. Pushing "Nokia Messaging" forcefully that way is unfair I think.
