It's not an upgrade nor a downgrade really, as a phone it beats all te devices I've used, quick for stuff like calls and texting.
The N900 may have offered more features but frankly, it sucked as a phone, choking when there's an incoming call.
all nice & shiny, 'til the registry gets messed up
then, back to the shop, re-flashed including but not limited to loss of all your (recent) data & start from scratch, including buying all the apps all over again
have fun

if they don't get swiping right away, maybe they should stick with a NOKIA 1100?

For the average consumer it's a good device all in all, for most Maemo power users, it's probably something you'll not want to get.

BTW, WP7 is a strong comeback really, WM sucked a lot compared to it
pity the masses don't care, huh?
