Well, thanks Nicolai for pointing me to the map... I have missed it before completely.

I have pinned myself at Mexico City.

92.3% of the population in Brighton seem to be iPhone users, although I have been showing off the N900 at every opportunity. I've found that the best way to shut an iPhone user up is to demonstrate the multitasking by opening up 7 or 8 applications then showing them the dashboard with all 7 or 8 apps still running. Never fails! :D

yeah brighton and worthing seem to be quiet on the N900 front.........
None of the local IT world seem to have any that i have seen, and i work in IT lol.....

Another one from Sydney :D. Sadly I don't take the train to work, so I will probably never see another N900 owner :(

Though I do sometimes head down towards the city on Thursday or Friday (my weekends :P) so who knows :D

Don't know if anyone has posted it already, but in this little film about Augmented Reality there's an artist holding it into the camera at 4:45. Be warned, though, it's in German.

I have only ever seen another N900 in Florence in the shop where I bought mine!.....He was an elderly guy and seemed to be having big problems using it :D. It took weeks before mine arrived and the shop owner said that Nokia were counting the N900's for Italy with a dropper!When i was at the supermarket in the queue at the checkout last week playing angry birds, the young man behind me was completely mesmerised......he even asked me what it was!!! Anyone in Florence here??.....

I've seen one in the tube, riding from Garching Research Center to Munich.
He was even sitting next to me. What are the odds..

They don't seem to be uncommon where all the Nerds (including me) are.

Re: Spotted, other N900 users....
 
nobody so far except my nephew....it told him about the phone and he got it.....now he said the phone sucks because it doesnt have any software ( he didnt activate any extras or devel)....i guess its not for him because he needs all the iphone apps in the world in his plate...he doesnt understand the concept behind this phone....you need to sweat a little in order to get good apps.

I saw the first (well, the second after mine) N900 here in Romania. It happened on my local airfield, at Clinceni, this saturday. I was near the airplane with couple of new guys and I took out my N900 to check the latest METAR and in seconds, another guy took out his N900 and started to play just to show I'm not the coolest dude around :)

It was nice to see I'm not the only lunatic in Bucharest :) He complained about his USB connector falling off after only 2 weeks :P

...easy one - Helsinki-Vantaa airport waiting on the baggage claim. A young guy next to me was playing around with his N900 to finally use some Sennheiser earphones. Flying back home two days later I saw again a couple of guys using a N900 - mainly surfing/reading eMail with the stylus in their hands.

But no, I didn't see anyone else with a N900 (or any Nxxx).

You sound like a parent

Just up the road from you in Leicester, I have observed there is an n900 user in Nottingham and one in Loughborough. A few more and we can start an East Midlands Nokia n900 group.

I dont want anyone else to have one.. haha i love being the only one i know locally with this cool gadget. I keep finding new things out every day. Just downloaded all my favourite mastersystem games onto it now.
Love it... just waiting for fring or ebuddy.

Bit gutted about lack of apps but hopefully it will grow.

Someone should do whip up a map of users in the UK. Would be interesting to see.

i've had my phone since mid december and i have yet to see anyone else in Miami with an n900. im usually always out and about during the weekends and although i dont go out with the purpose of searching for someone with the phone, i still think i would have at least seen one person with it by now. oh well like others have posted, its nice to have a unique phone.

I enjoyed using a Nokia 7710 from 2005 until mid last year when I got an N97.. During that time I only ever saw two,, One in Hyde park, London and the other in the film Stormbreaker.. It was always neat having a handset no one ever recognised. Made it al the more interesting when you told them it was a Nokia!

Two days after getting my N900, I spotted someone else with one on a train.. After having one on pre-order a colleague has one too.. Ruined me exclusivity trend :)

First post. Hi everyone. Just got mine last week. Haven't seen anyone using an N900 in my area since it was released.

lol @ "John Lewis Watford"

If he was using QTIrreco he must have been fairly advanced (or stupid!) as that's only in Testing isn't it. Great idea though... takes me back to school and the Casio IR watch.
