*facepalm*.
Assuming this comes as a reaction from that idiotic CNet Asia article...
The FUD and completely inaccurate reporting that is continually being taken as ABSOLUTE FACT and re-reported and regurgitated all over the place is completely and utterly RIDICULOUS and without basis.
Hint: an article, quoting 'Nokia', without names, is not a reliable source.
Especially not when it contravenes existing sources given by valuable members of the Nokia, Meego, and Maemo communities [1] [2].
That mini-rant at having seen the same trollop spewed forth in such vitriolic tones aside, enjoy your new device.

After all the bad reviews about the Nokia N97. I thought they stepped up their game with the N900 and now Maemo on Nokia N900 is not upgradeable to MeeGo.
Don’t know why that surprised me. Doesn’t matter any more anyway I no longer have an N900. Now with the iPhone and guess people were right, it is a stable OS and a great gaming device with great graphics.
When Nokia makes a device like Apple iPhone standard I might consider getting one.
Even BlackBerry are doing a lot better than Nokia at the moment.

The N900 kept letting me down too much. I owed two N900's. The first one I just thought is was a faulty device so I got another few weeks later and the result was just the same.
Many people I know and seen sold theirs because of problems with the device and got iPhones, Nexus One and HTC HD2.
Each time I visit this site there are a load of people with problems with their N900. So obviously there is something wrong here.
Also Nokia makes too many promises and keep letting people down. What happened to the BIG update for the N900 which supposed to have Portrait Mode, Equalizers, MMS etc..?!
They seem to have forgotten all that and start giving it large about MeeGo and look what’s happening with that to!

I imagine that the 1.2 update will be expanding on this functionality.
Either way, you, as a consumer, should have known better than to buy a device based on promises, if the functionality you are mentioning was *required* as far as you are concerned. The items you mentioned were covered by a lot of press before the launch.
