I think we question your "research" etc and your decision to buy a phone based on the final conclusion because you basically said you were ready to dump the n900 simply in order to get the other phone sooner.

Now if you had said something like

"I think with this delay and with the fact that the HD2 meets the majority of my requirements I am going to go with it instead"

That would have garnered a better response. Your original post simply sounded like a spoilt kid saying "I am gonna take my ball and bat and go home, if I dont get immediate gratification."

Sorry just the way it came across to me,
