The Note is good for hardware but software looks to me worst in comparison to N900 mainly for two reasons:
- switching from an app to another takes too long and it's not practical
- browsing is not like destop, like was on N900. I already found some websites that doesn't work like used to be on N900; tried default browser,Opera and Firefox.

Still don't like Android but since I run my own sync service with Funambol Opensource and sideloaded apps I can forgive myself for holding a Google Os.

Still can't easily rsync or connect to nfs. I mean, it's possible I know but not as easy as I had on N900.

After all won't leave the bigger screen for a 3.5 again ... and 1Gb of Ram ... makes the difference.


Someone made work MTP with a Linux box?
The only thing that I like in Android over Maemo is
1) Android isn't dead just like Maemo and
2) Latest google maps that are very good for GPS. N900 still has 5 yr old map and I've seen searching is much better in Google map compared to OVI Maps.

Above all else Maemo is a much efficient OS compared to Android. It utilizes the resources in much better way. Its multi-tasking is much better than Android and WP7.5
