If you're complaining about the bulk of the N900... you seriously shouldn't carry anything heavier and thicker than a notepad and a pen.

I fear that most people in society have become way too weak... complaints about 5 pound (2.2kg) laptops and the sort. Pfft.

The n900 weight (181g) and size (19.55mm) is a rather poor trade off for a rather small screen size.

The 5", 5 Mpx cam, with probable USB Host, 9.9 mm Dell streak (above) is the true successor design imo to the original internet tablets despite its 220g.

Available to buy for £399 from its release day (~£200 cheaper than the n900): here.

Nice thread, i found the phone quite heavy at first as i was used to a really slim phone, however i love it now, it has really grown on me. Just remember this is not a phone with gadgetry, its a pocket powerhouse you can make calls with. I didn't get it to look cool i got it to tinker with and glad i did ^^

N900 heavy? How about Nokia Talkman. In a self defence situation, I wouldn't want to be the other guy! :)http://www.nokiamuseum.com/images/Mobira%20Talkman.jpg

We had this in our house:

http://www.cntr.salford.ac.uk/comms/...nicebg350s.jpg
1997.

Battery standby = 1.3 hours talk.

Weight = 225g.

Dimensions = 156 x 47 x 35 mm.

I used to rack up huge phone bills as a kid listening to the time and dialing stupid things.

there that should do it. :)

Sorry, all I can think about right now is "there's something on the screen there is something on the screen". You put hard stuff on the N900's screen. I had to cut the images from the reply quote. You're cruel, man.

Yeah, but who'd wanna walk about with half a sheet of shuttering ply all day long? :p

Besides, I find the N900 a lot more comfortable to hold than my old N95-8GB.

By the way apcoelho, where did you get your wallpaper from? Looks quite good to me.

Villo is right, I am using Carbon Theme with this wallpaper Link

About the size ... I came from Sony Ericsson P990i (I regret much...), then Nokia E90 (brilliant but unsupported inner screen) and then N900, as you can see i´m used to big phones and the N900 is pretty slick to me.

I use a Noreve leather case for my N900. Im pretty happy with it but it adds about an extra 50% thickness. One benefit of this is that the phone seems very slim out of the case.

I guess thats like someone stamping on your toe to relieve a headache though.
