Nice try, but you're no Niini. Your reason-foo is no match for the pessimist tone of this thread. It has attained the 'I don't care level', where it no longer matters what you DID, DO or WILL (not) get, as if you say something positive, you're a blind fanboy, and if you say something negative, you're a whiner. Being normal, considering advantages and disadvantages does not apply and is being used to reaffirm one's fanboy or whine attitude as mentioned above.

"But seriously. To label folks that want bugs that do exist to be fixed is considered whining now?"

The way to get a bug that does exist fixed is NOT to pile into a humongous (well, getting there) thread and complain and complain and ask for proof. The way to get a bug fixed is to find a thread or place where that bug is discussed or reported and talk about it there.

And to those of you demanding proof -- I would like proof too! Where is proof that the economy is improving? Where is proof that I am going to live ten years? Where is proof that anything is going to happen about anything?

I don't know about you, but I'm just not finding a lot of proof, especially about future events, out there.

In the meantime, my N900 is lovely.

Community is doing port and some Nokia employees are lending a hand too.

Some misinformation there - Nokia employees (incl kernel developers) plus subcontractors are paid to work on MeeGo for N900 hardware adaptation. By MeeGo I mean meego.com, not Maemo 6.

Just look at the number of these so called "ranting/whining" threads popping up all the time here. If nothing else, this should be an indication that more and more people are getting disappointed, frustrated and just plain pissed with n900 and nokia.

No amount of Nokia_arsh_kissing comments from individuals around here will make it better for the rest of us. One can't convince a hungry person that he/she is well fed.

Look at what is happening here... was this forums so fragmented and were there so many complaints before?

In MeeGo, closed blobs are: battery management, 3d accelerator libraries, bluetooth and wifi firmware. Accessible by plugging in your IMEI and accepting the usual 'no warranties' license.

So what you're saying is that they're not really serious about competing?

Oh snap! He called it!

Man, I miss it when it was Internet Tablet Talk and we were all so optimistic about openness and stuff. :) Man, we were so naive. heheh

Yes, there has been LOT of complaints before.
And many of them by the same posters as well :D
It is just the way that web discussions/forums work IMHO.

Niklas Savander guy is taking questions on twitter today:
http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...6&goto=newpost

Why don't everyone tweet him and ask him about what bothers you about N900? I' asked him about flash 10.1 on N900.. i guess if everyone of us tweets then it will be hard to avoid that question.. cmon' peeps.. start tweeting please!

Question about 2) : Will Meego for N900 be a Phone or just a microcomputer. (sms, mms, mfe, and OVI store access .... all the things Nokia phones have?)

I haven't seen any answer to this, but I sure want to know what people believe (hoping is not that interesting).
