How disappointing this whole thread is. I for one had no problem pocketing my N810. I loved the large size of the screen. Having recently purchased a 5800, I can say I'm not greatly enamored with these smaller screens for browsing. It can be done, sure, but it's not pleasant, like it is on the N810.

With a screen size no bigger than the N97 and generally being happy with Symbian for most of my daily tasks, why exactly would I buy an N900? I bought the N810 because it had a big screen. Great for GPS in the car, for looking at recipes in the kitchen, all sorts of things. Teensy screens are useless for that stuff.

Secondly, I'm displeased with the direction Maemo 5 is going. I liked the UI elements. They would have been annoying were the full screen mode not available, but I like having a task bar/launch menu of sorts. Not having it is one of my biggest annoyances with S60.

Of course, take my displeasure with all this with a grain of salt, as I wasn't pleased with the reduction in size from the E61 to the E71. I liked the bigger screen. Maybe I'm weird, not liking to hold the screen inches from my face to read it well without having enormous text.

The sad thing is that if the N900 was an updated N810 with a phone bolted on I'd probably have bought one instead of an N97. It would be better for my use, presuming battery life wouldn't be an issue.

What I really don't understand is why Nokia would want to put more into the already overly crowded smartphone space. Between their phones and all the others out there there's already plenty of players there. There is no new ground to tread, other than putting Maemo on a smartphone.
