I'm gonna miss you when you're gone, Guber99. After a few dozen posts your incessant pedantic ranting got annoying but now it's kinda cute. Reminds me of my kids when they were younger.

You are right. Here is what it says for N devices: "Nokia Nseries are optimal for business users requiring high end multimedia solutions."

Back up your sentences with facts, not half truths. Where on NOKIA website does it say that MfE on N series differs from E series????

Show me the data!

Plz stop complaining, all people knows that Nseries is for multimedia and can do basic functions into email like MSE, and no one can know until buy thne N900 wat kind of MSE support will it have cuz u are right and it doest say specifically what kind of features in MSE was supported but for FULL support is the E series, the corporate series, so, it was fault of both, you and nokia, nokia for not specific detalis of MSE and you, if you gonna get used most in corporate enviroment, you must go for the E series... Now if Nokia doesnt give back your money, sell it and buy another phone, ur beloved Iphone and stop chilling out at forums cuz we doenst have any fault in your problem

*DO NOT FEED THE TROLL*

BTW plenty of people have so called "real" jobs and use the phone just fine. Just because a certain minor part of busniesses use exchange provisioning(whatever the f... that is) doesn't mean it's useless for others.

Some companies are actually using other things than exchange. I know my own company is using exchange ONLY and I mean ONLY for a company wide calendar and absolutely NOTHING else.

As for your "apologizer" posts... Nobody is. They simple state what's around. The E- series of phones has always been business class and the N- has atleast when I bought the N95 as "content" creator phones or multimedia computers etc...

Yes the N900 is more of a media generation/consumption device rather than a limited but great busniess features device.

Sometimes you can't tell the difference and sometimes there's a HUGE gap between the various devices.

Also here's the official supported/enabled devices list:
http://europe.nokia.com/find-product...l-for-exchange
http://europe.nokia.com/support/down...y-and-download

So yes the N900 isn't marked there. Yes limited MfE on the N900 is possible and I'm guessing it works for most people. But a small loud minority needs to try and stir up people about using some proprietary protocol and not being able to support everything about it.

Ow and Nokia seems to only support E class devices with their provisioning tools as well:

Thanks in advance.
Sorry for jumping here in but:

"When I talk about a computer, I talk about a computer people use today, especially young people. Think about the internet, messaging, sharing, openness, and think about browsers and players. Don't think about spreadsheets, word processors, file managers, or closed systems. That should put you in the right ballpark to start with."

Sooo...This is just vision of one people even thought its maemo's team head. I would say that this device is people who like to be online and like browsing, music, video but do not care so much about boring stuff as spreadsheets and word (corporate world and probably also not calendar or email etc).

This was just to whom itīs marketed but off course different people find it capable of doing many kind of stuff.
