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!
