yes I agree completely, the only real reason I want a n900 really is because no other manufacturer really puts beefy processors in their devices all android phones have the same processor currently and I don't really want an iphone. Essentially this leaves the N900. The palm pre would be nice but no GSM in that either... so unless a android phone gets say... the 1ghz snapdragon processor a nice screen and good camera all in one the only real alternative this year in the US is the N900. Essentially my dream is an HTC HD2 with android. OMG i would seriously buy one right now!!
