I really don't know why... maybe its the lack of media regarding the features of the phone, yes we have some foreign videos but the content of them is so painfully generic you can guess what they are saying.

So I suppose I was hyped for it when it was announced but the coverage from Nokia world was basically nonexistent (quite telling if you ask me) has deflated the gadget nerd inside of me. None of the features that we have seen have "wowed" me to the point of wanting to spend £500 on one.

Edit: And ill miss the trackball from my Hero... god I love that trackball.
well I've used the hero its a amazing device but android is no media power house and at its current rate it's a infant maybe a year from now it will be in its prime. As far as the iphone i only had the ipod touch and from my experience it was okay. I like the physically keyboard on the n900 i can see myself using this like i did my n95 8gb (and dearly miss it). I went out to Miami and recorded my cousin full freestyle (hip hop) session a hour long, went back to the hotel and uploaded it. I had sonic 1, 2 , 3 and Mario games playing them on the train because i had a physically keypad loved it. tethering, skype , accelerometer games, plus apps from third party developers and with a major developer base. This device will explode and i feel it you have maemo 5 being the first maemo cellular device so data connection on the go is possible. If i had a iphone and hero I'd damn sure sell it lol. One thing for sure apple will make a better iphone in may next year and the hero will be replaced knowing HTC shoot look at engadget.com they already talking about a HTC Android HD.
