I just come to think of this when reading most of this thread:

1: We don't see things as they are, we see things as we are.

2: If you judge a fish on it's ability to climb a tree it will always come out short/stupid.

Ohh I agree with most written by OP. I've gone all the way and sold my N900/N9 and bought a 4S as i didn't use them for more than just phones anymore. I do like what the 4S offers me despite the closed OS and the restirctions and iTunes.

I to must say that my phone does not define who I am, regardless of brand I'm still me and not to be boxed as a certain 'thing' and I don't get all the demeaning comments against people using iphones. You sir's that say these things are the little ones as you do not embrace but reject and seriously it's phones and OS's there's more important things to get worked up about. You might have the 'right' phone that does the 'right' things, but you're not at all open(minded) as your OS (maemo).
