I did use the configurator and otherwise love the device. The error that I get: Mandatory Service policy failed. Someone else reported this problem to nokia message boards. I have no patience for sh*t like this
Sounds like a Microsoft error to me, your admin has screwed up regarding policies.

The reception by whom? Reviewers? Let's wait to see what the numbers are like once it's being sold to customers. I sincerely doubt it'll be the big hit some of us would like to hope it will be. I just feel like this device is intentionally designed to fail. Anyway, we'll see.

Nobody wanted it even when they had the best opportunity to take over. Apple quickly came in and took that away. Nokia is siding itself with a proven historic loser in the mobile space. I won't EVEN start explaining how well Zune did compared to iPod, Sansa or anyone else in the portable music devices. Microsoft has a history showing that they can't really make a "cool" or catchy device people want.
You have heard about HTC? Previously they were an OEM making phones with a variety of names, but not just any phone, they were making phones using Windows Mobile. In fact that was the core business idea for HTC; make phones and pads that could be used the way people use a desktop PC. And they succeeded. They started with nothing and today they are one of the leading brands, thanks to Windows CE. Of course, Android has boosted the company big time during the last couple of years.

The device is not designed to fail. However, the selection of markets for release will get the device to fail. Elop will finally have an excuse, "oops, the N9 didn't sell as expected, I pronounce MeeGo dead, and the marriage to Microsoft official."

copy that.
in fact, according to Jo Harlow, Executive Vice President, Smart Devices the N9 is an early-adopter tech geek device.
the same as the N900.
even if the masses are enthusiastic (ppl camping in front of the store the previous night ?!? :eek: ), well, they better arm themselves with a morgenstern instead of patience... :D
history doesn't repeat itself, it stutters... :(

He believes that Nokia Mango is different from HTC, LG and Samsung Mango.

And yet you waste your precious free time on a Maemo forum and bought an E6. Let me ask you this: Nokia failure or BigBadGuber failure?

Just buy a WP7 device now and get it over with.
