They claim it's also a CDMA phone and that the N810 couldn't multitask.

Does no one do any research before opening their mouths anymore?

I thought that it was pretty good aside from that lapse. I think that someone told them something that was misunderstood about the N810. It's easy to conclude from a mistake that they didn't do any research, but I think they did. They probably didn't do much research on the N810 and obviously didn't know much about the N810, which is not so bad, since they weren't reviewing the N810.

The big picture tells me that he rated a machine he knows nothing about an 8 out of 10. For all we know, he may not have ever actually touched a device. When you are getting even the very basics wrong, how can we simply accept his conclusion as valid?

It ends with this: Will carriers be willing to subsidize the N900 and its locked-down Maemo OS?

As an owner of a pygmy hedgehog I say YES for one as our mascot - they are awesome
