[14:47:42] matt [wronka.org]/kerberos Andrew Flegg actually just cleared-up an earlier question about switching to the dev repository; and that is that it *won't work at all* until the PR1.2 release. Which makes sense because Nokia doesn't actually distribute the base system in the repository which is another rant entirely; and very non-open.
(Nokia N900 vs Apple iPhone) Users
[18:56:39] matt [wronka.org]/kerberos The Apple iPhone <http://bohmian.org/disc/Apple_iPhone> launched without Multimedia Messaging Service support, and its users whined for over two years. Eventually, a successor product finally received support.

The Nokia N900 also launched without MMS support <http://bohmian.org/disc/Nokia_N900>, and within three months of the device being announced, its users had added it. <http://mms.frals.se/fmms.html>

This is perhaps the clearest illustration distinguishing the types of users each device attracts.
