Re: Anyone regret buying N900?
 

i bought mine around 2 years ago and extremely regretted not buying an n97 at first cause all the bugs in pr1.0 and me and that not having much prior experience with linux thought the phone was a joke but now i wouldnt switch it for any other phones (the other day my cousin came to show off his iph4s and slander my "fossil" but man should you have seen me when i wiped the floor with spending the entire next hour showing him 10000000000 things possible only with the n900)

On the verge of getting a second one. So, I guess the answer is "no". The only regret I have is that I did not take my own thoughts seriously: The thought that this n900 would be a one time deal and that I should've bought two to begin with.

i just regret why I didn't buy one more

Re: Anyone regret buying N900?
 

Surely you can still source N900 around if you shop and do your homework on the sellers :)

There aren't many N900 left for sale (genuine ones I mean) but that doesn't mean that they are no longer for sale anywhere.

I myself am happy that I got three of them and I'll just stick to just having three. Yes I'm probably rubbing in a bit of ego on the other hand :D

Re: Anyone regret buying N900?
 

luckily i don't buys my n900 so there no regrets on having it....
i got my n900(brand new) after winning a bet in the final of the last world cup :D :D

also since i got these great device i also managed to convert 4 of my friends from using symbian/android/iOS/blackberry to using Maemo (n900) :D :D :D

Re: Anyone regret buying N900?
 

Is that really a valid question? Is that even possible to have "regret" and n900 in the same sentence? hmmm.

Re: Anyone regret buying N900?
 

Many people who regret buying N900 are long gone. The only ones left are diehards. Hence you should not be surprised to get highly skewed opinions.

Re: Anyone regret buying N900?
 

i bought it 2 months ago. and i will never regret buying it. you can do anything with it.

Re: Anyone regret buying N900?
 

I no longer use mine but I don't regret having bought it. Got lots of good use out of it. But the N900 is now two years old and a lot has happened in mobile devices during that time. I had planned to get an N9 but Nokia seems to have made a complete botch of that in the US.

Re: Anyone regret buying N900?
 

I do not regret at all that I bought it, I only regret that Nokia dumped it.

Re: Anyone regret buying N900?
 

yeap, u are right.
i take nokia after sony-ericsson did a great job trowing his phones as fast as possible, and now i'm returning to the same story.
ghetting tired of producers not taking care of their expensive product after took the money from u.

so, sometimes i regret the poor proper support, even the community is doing huge efforts to keep it up do date.

Re: Anyone regret buying N900?
 

I regretted buying my N900 so much that when it finally broke down to the point where I couldn't reliably use it as a phone I went through the effort of bidding for a second hand one in Europe (I'm in the USA) to get my hands on a replacement + extra batteries.

So, negative regret, I suppose.

That said, I can understand some people wanted more out of the N900 than the N900 was offering, and didn't care for the stuff the N900 did great. And some people had higher hopes for a the line of gadgets of which N900 was a part. The Nokia N900 is awesome, but it's currently a dead end. And the N900 is also unlikely to be followed by an equal phone in a different line for a while - some of us got used to the N900 as is, and switching when these N900s are outdated beyond repair and usability will suck, partly because of the actual supperiority of the N900 and partly because getting used to it will make everything else seem worse.

But at any rate, I for one am happy with the N900 (albeit I got it late enough that a lot of the bugs were known and at least some fixed). No other single piece of technology has ever brought me as much happiness since I first got a computer.

r u kiddin....coming from a 5800 this phone rocks for the past 2 years.....phones come and go.....galaxy, galaxy s2, iphones.....'I say,oh that`s a nice option'....'I`ll buy that'.....and all the sudden some developer surprises me.....720p recording....r u kidding me? I`m not changing to any other phone any time soon!

Re: Anyone regret buying N900?
 

I think Nokia marketing actually had it right, what makes the N900 so good is the fact that it isn't a smartphone, it really is a "Mobile Computer"! Why settle for carrying around just a phone with some smarts, when you can have a full blown computer in the same space in your pocket?

I agree with what many others said in this thread. My regret comes from not finding a viable option as my next device, there isn't anything like it!
