But, of course, that's if your goal in life is to write little apps. With the N900, I'm running the same OS on my phone that I'm running on my desktop machines. I absolutely love being able to open a terminal and start editing code in Vim on the N900, in exactly the same way I do on my desktop machines. The freedom to use the machine as a normal Linux box, not just a glorified app launcher, is what sets the N900 apart from the appy phones.
