What? I already carry a MacBook Pro and an Eee901 (running Crunchbang Linux) everywhere, and I was hoping that the N900 would be a good step forwards towards convergence nirvana, allowing me to lighten my load. It seems that it isn't though, as it would appear that the N900 is designed to be just another peripheral for a PC (and from what I've been hearing about Ovi, probably one running Windows).

Of course your opinion is as valid as mine, and probably more popular with the marketing crowd, but remember what Bill Hicks said about them ...
