@geekgirl74 - no longer having your n900 is unfortunate, but I'd recommend you to consider buying a second hand one (should cost you something in the range 100-150 eur). Once you have it, put CSSU-thumb on it, move swap on SD card, tweak a bit VM settings and you'll top your S3 in terms of speed. I know what I talk about, I compared phone/contacts/conversations applications startup times between my device and S3(stock android), n900 is slightly faster.

microb is still the best mobile browser around, and you can have opera12 if you wish.

Are you aware there is "official" flash 10 for fremantle? yes, there is .

I am not trying to convince you that n900 is the next best thing after the sliced bread (you already know that ), but you won't believe what progress n900 SW/OS have made for the last 1.5 year. And it is still supported by the community, for example CSSU was the next after google and M$ (even before firefox) to blacklist those fraudulent TURKTRUST intermediate certificates. New functionality comes with every update, most of the applications are still supported, etc.
