Lucky you. I find text on the N900 extremely difficult to read. In any light.

Two reasons.

Reason one, the pixel density is way too high. That on its own might not be a problem per se but I guess it is too tempting to take advantage of that and make the text too small. Honestly, I could barely read my SMS without a magnifying glass until I found a trick how to enlarge the font.

Reason two, light text on a dark background. What genius came up with that idea? Having come to the N900 from the Palm OS world, I was astonished how backwards the usability has gone.

Don't get me wrong, I love my N900 to bits, but I am not blind to its shortcomings. The sad thing is that all of them have been carried over to the Jolla, even adding some more

Then I imported the contacts from my SIM card and realized that new contacts were not automatically synced with my SIM card and there doesn't seem to be a method to do that at all. Googled a bit and I have read some posts from 2010 that it wasn't implemented by Nokia. Is that still the case?
Sadly, the inability to edit the SIM address book is another N900's shortcoming. As is the inability to sort your contacts to groups. Both carried over to Jolla as well
