I'm probably going to cancel my pre-order for the N900.

I guarantee you are not the only one doing this.

The timing is critical, and a short delay for the N900 could have a big impact on its future.

Even if the Droid is not a better device than the N900, if Verizon does very high profile marketing, they could take away a huge percentage of the early adopters who would have gone with the N900.

Thinking back on the talk about T-Mobile's "game changer", siphoning off key early adopters is a real game changer, IMO. The Droid could do this. Once those key people have been diverted from the N900, it can be hard to recover...
