Gutted I sold my N900 and bought an iPhone 4
 
Well I finally sold my N900.

Then I bought an iPhone 4.

At first I was impressed. It is fast. The screen is responsive.

But oh god its boring. Its all so restricted and no tweaking is possible., customisation is limited to very basic stuff.

With Cydia its a decent device, but standard its not great.

I actually really really miss my N900 :(

Why did you do it? Genuine curiosity.

It appears that he participated in the "my friends think that the N900 is a piece of crap" thread, so peer pressure is a reasonable guess for why he got rid of the N900.

Even a great rooted Android phone is still unmatched for N900.
Make sure you don't hold the phone to make a call, it will drop...:)

Getting an iPhone, that I can understand somehow. Selling your N900 I definitely cannot understand.

Pretty much what I found out after playing with my buddy's for a little bit. Very polished, but also very locked down and doesn't offer much in the ways of customization or tweaking of any kind.

While most say somebody who likes the simplicity of an iphone shouldn't get an N900, I'd say the reverse is true too. The N900 is too open to go back to a closed system like ios.

I have felt something like that since getting an Android device. It drives me CRAZY when Overdrive automatically closes a book I am reading just because I want to look up a word in the dictionary or consult a map. My N900 would never do that.
