I'm trying to turn a flaming trollfest into something more
constructive. Instead of calling me names, can you actually respond to
my question: what has Nokia advertised that you can do on the device,
that you can only do by opening X Terminal, fiddling with
configuration files etc?

The device may be well suited to hackers, but - as far as I can tell -
it meets its stated goals adequately without having to resort to such
things. A number of times in this thread, people have said "you have
to be a hacker to do anything with it and Nokia don't advertise that".
What did Nokia advertise that you've got to be a hacker to do?

Cheers,

Andrew
