Whilst i would agree with you in many respects the E7 is superior to the N900 ... in much the same way as CD is superior to vinyl (Amoled vs LCD) i do miss the N900's sheer customizability and the unique way that i could somehow have it just the way i want it, and i also miss the free apps from the Maemo catalogues, timed silencer was a particular favourite of mine as my phone has to be on silent when i am at work and i could never remember to do it. It might seem a bit odd to some people but i prefer small text, something that the N900 with it's tightly packed pixels could do better than the E7.

You say that Opera had the option of rendering desktop and yes it's true enough i did get desktop versions but when the text was resized i found it rather blocky and cumbersome.

I will be getting a N900 back tomorrow and the E7 is going back, I will miss that big old clear screen but to be honest i originally hated, no, resented that i got the E7 in exchange for my N900, then got used to it, then i got to like a lot of the new features but i have quickly grown rather bored of it, i shan't be too sorry to see it go.

There's no escaping the fact that the E7 through all it's superiority is a smartphone with a lot of good features whereas the N900 is a bit like a scaled down laptop with phone capability thrown in as an afterthought. They are 2 very different devices built for doing different things in different ways and i think that if i tried to persevere with the E7 i doubt i would be comfortable it in the long run
