Exactly. Some people do this every day. 2-3 hours a day to and from work or university. It's also more convenient having 1 for all device than carry multiple devices. Nokia is forcing me to possibly get another device for my media consumption needs. Current and even soon to be released WP7 phones can't even play xvid videos so that doesn't make it any better either.

I was hoping a successor to N900 would be all that but it ended up being the N9 which isn't any more powerful than the N900 except for the more RAM. (my N900 can play the same HD videos as N9 now and I run it at 1.1Ghz anyways so my MicroB doesn't render web pages any slower) After nearly 2 years of waiting, we get a hardware that isn't that much newer. Bit upset really. Heck, even my N8 is better than the N9 in many ways. e.g. Can play up to certain high profile H264 videos, HDMI out, USB OTG, MicroSD, better Nokia Maps navigation (with traffic, spoken street names etc), better camera with 2 stage button, WhatsApp and widgets etc.

I guess I was expecting Nokia to go out with a bang for their supposedly last Harmattan device. (U8500 SoC etc) I was too optimistic I guess.
