I wouldn't even say this about me. I'm a computer nerd, maybe, don't know, but I'm extremely picky when it comes to phones. Before I buy one, I spend weeks comparing specs in spreadsheets, running through stores, bugging the droids there until they finally let me try the model so I know how it feels... etc.
And even though I do all this, I never feel like I found the real phone that does what I need.

The N900 has "compromise" written all over it - as all other Icandoallinonedevice-phones. As a phone, it wouldn't even make it to my short list. Size, battery life, screen, lack of real keys... it simply isn't a phone. It was never meant to be one. It was meant to be the computer in your pocket that can also do phone calls.
I need the phone in my pocket that can also do some web stuff and run cool apps.

And then I need a secondary device with a larger screen.
Hey, how about an... how would we call it? - "Internet Tablet" that only connects to my phone but in fact is a small laptop?
