I'm with Timo on this.  If you don't like the N900, there is a better site
to be posting on.  It is called eBay.  When you post your N900 there, let us
know, some of us might respond more favorably there.

I wasn't stupid enough to buy an N900 after being ripped off with my
N800. The N800 will get thrown in a drawer tomorrow when my Nexus One
arrives. I'll probably tinker with it now and then, but since the only
thing it does really well is browse the Web, I'm not going to put any
more major effort into it.

Curious. I like my N800 since I finally got everything I wanted running.

However, the N900 clearly has some way to go before it would interest me. I'm unclear why it was necessary to break so much that was working in OS2008 in order to make Maemo5, although I'm sure the developers had their reasons.

Maemo5 is clearly an experimental platform, whereas OS2008 is (now) a usable tool -- in its turn the N800 platform was to some extent an experiment when it came out. Maemo5 does not seem to have learned as much from the N800 experience, though, which is a pity. Maybe in a few years I'll be able to afford an N900...
