I think that even the poll itself only measures data based on members of this forum, the number of which can not accurately represent actual data as it would seem several (hundred?) thousand N900 have already been sold.

I think the fact that on the "home forum" of the device only about 40 people bothered to say that they are happy with the phone speaks for itself. No need to interpret that in any way.

And you are very active even though you hate the device so much. Are you running a propaganda here?

Not true.

Different regions may receive different firmware versions, and network operators also frequently provide "customised" firmware that can affect functionality.

Phones can also vary very greatly depending on which suppliers are used for components, which factories manufacture them, and what kind of production processes are being used.

Even a single model may have literally dozens of variants with slightly different qualities in terms of stability and reliability.

And even with a single variant you are going to see a certain percentage of models with physical faults coming out of the factory. There is no way to avoid this.

It's nice how you all complain about a faulty phone.

WE CAN NOT BUY A GOOD OR FAULTY N900 IN SWITERLAND YET.

As soon as I can I really start to join this dicussion :-)

True :)

Either way, I stand by my previous statement. The fact that I use this device but am able to criticize it shows I am not biased in one way or another.

Asking paranoid questions about propaganda, calling all complainers trolls or saying 2 devices bought from the same store, from the same launch batch, have different firmware versions is simply ridiculous.

Learn to get out of the basement and compare the device to the whole market...where nobody gives a crap you can RD to your home computer when you can't even set a different ringtone for different contacts. NICHE DEVICE.

No positives at all then?

And still you kind of did by posting that... :p

But I don't think there is any strange thing in that people didn't take a poll... a poll that is not very precise and doesn't tell anything about the device and or users.

But still people who dislikes or hates the "phone" bothered to take it and write long posts on forum telling everybodyelse just how crappy it is and that alot of them won't be told by other people (with working not faulty phones) that their "phone" is faulty and is not supposed to behave that way... I find that very strange :confused:

- Better battery life than the 3GS
- Solid construction
- Excellent touchscreen
- Good signal where other Nokias used to lose signal
- Stereo speakers
- Fully featured browser (even though it's crippled by slow rendering, crappy interface, no back button, random crashes)
- Phone app makes calls fast
- Customizable desktop
...etc.

Huge step in the right direction for Nokia...but far from the top of the market.
