Are your seriously saying N900 is a ghetto phone or that Nokia and Intel(wrt to tablets etc) are going to release crappy handsets?

Nokia's intentions with MeeGo is to only use them on its high-end devices. Carrier subsidies are important but mostly in the USA. In Europe and I think the rest of the world most phones are sold unsubsidized, since it's cheaper in the long run.

Nokia specializes in releasing crappy handsets since 2003. They even have problems with figuring out which side of the device "Cancel" is supposed to be on, or with making speaker mode work properly (both noticed on E51).
