E75 w Archos 5 Android
or iphone 3G S

Haven't got a n900 yet but will do once people get fed up of it and prices plunge as well as significant upgrades softwarewise.

The N96. Truly, a superb device. Had its bugs and it was not touchscreen but it was better than the N97, hands down, and it was technologically immense at its release - even though it was delayed forever and a day.

Had an iphone 3g which i bought to replace the absolutely awfull blackberry storm. i really like the iphone and i still have it stashed away in a drawer somewhere, it's a good peice of kit and the music functionality is a million times better than the N900, the user experience i think is a little better than the N900, but then it is geared up to be that way.

I'll openly admit that i was an apple fan, they promote very well and make sleek products, however after doing research and looking into it, i was more than a little surprised at how controlling apple are, and also what i was missing out on, and after 3 outings for the iphone, you would have thought they could change the design a little bit, and also i thought to myself, why should i be satisfied with what they want me to have, and not what i want to have. this led me to the N900, i love it, it's not without its flaws, design wise, it's not what i would call pretty, and the media player could use some work, but, touch wood, i've not had any problems at all with the phone, and the internet on it is amazing, i'm a very happy end user and i'm already looking forward to the next model.

i was a 9500, to e90, to e90 & n900...

only use the e90 now for xls and doc creation/manipulation.

now that there is sygic and toshL, all i need is the office docs and ill be off the e90!

Re: what was your phone before n900??
 
From the smartphone era n95, n96, n97 and now the boss n900. There was no way i was going down the iphone route to be strapped to &pple, their store or a device with lesser capability in my eyes. A very good user interface but not much more.

The N900 really is tops.

I guess you allready know about easy-debian and openoffice.org running on th N900?
It is absolutely no rocket science to set up and pretty usable.

Happy Easter!

Back on topic: 5800, nice device, solid, nice music player. Not compareable to the N900 and Maemo though.

Nokia 6210 (stolen)
Nokia 6600
SE P800 (traded for 6600)
Three SE P990i (modded) + at times Nokia 1110 (long story)
After losing *yet another* P990 was without a phone for about 3 months, was looking for touch screen and hardware keyboard - really glad I waited so I could get the N900.

and everytime the new model was better than the one before.
I'm a BIG Nokia fan.
The iphone was the first phone that might have made me change brand, but hey why get an iphone when you can get the n900?

Before I buy N900 I use Nokia 9500 Communicator. The phone was great, but for the newest technology is better :)

Re: what was your phone before n900??
 
Before my amazing n900? LOL I had a nokia 2760 and had never touched a touchscreen, smartphone or anything sophisticated at all. I remember playing with my mum's 3310! Seriously, n900 is pure awesomeness!!! :)

*looks around to see if the coast is clear*

Ok, don't tell anyone this, but my phone before the N900 was the Samsung Freeform on MetroPCS. Here's the history (in reverse chronological order):

1. Nokia N900 (current)
2. Samsung Freeform
3. Apple iPhone 1st Gen
4. Palm Treo 650
5. Handspring Treo 600

Re: what was your phone before n900??
 
Before was N900, now is BlackBerry bold 9700, because n900 doesnt have a good solution for email accounts.
Why nobody do some widget or program which can show incoming emails is same widget and different email alerts for each email account.
Am i the only one person who use more than one email account :mad:

Re: what was your phone before n900??
 
I didn't have the time to read all 31 pages, but I wonder if anyone took a bigger leap than me - my previous phone was a Nokia 6820 .... produced 2003 I think.

I actually still use it now as I have multiple sim cards and I am still too paranoid to take my n900 out to some places, plus it's the best keyboard I ever used :)

Had an E71 myself, adjusting to a touch-screen from a D-pad was pretty rough for a week or so.

Re: what was your phone before n900??
 
My last phone was a big mistake. I went for the look of it without researching it first. It was the original Samsung tocco. Man, it was a poor phone. Learnt my lesson from that about researching first. I don't regret buying my N900 one bit. I use it everyday and am still very happy with it 1 year into a 2 year contract. Definately the best phone I have ever owned by far. I love it.
