Quoted for truth.

It has been four years since the first Rover prototype pictures leaked out (http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/25/n...blet-unveiled/). Hardware has long since passed it by. That said, the N900 has an openness and "jack-of-all trades" feel to it that I just don't get with the "latest and greatest" devices.

That's a big reason why I left the N9 after only a few months, to go back to the N900. As of 2013, I accept the limitations and quirkiness of the N900 because there really isn't anything else out there that can match N900 on many of the things that I happen to value in a device.
