Read my main post in this thread--the thread that rm42 was actually replying to. Please direct your attention to the last sentence, where I explain that I've been a Linux enthusiast for nearly a decade. In case that isn't clear enough, allow me to explain. Various forms of Linux (currently Ubuntu 10.04) have been on my desktop for years. Not just my primary OS, but my only OS.

I know what Maemo 5 is and I love it. I simply disagree that N900 should be called a "mobile computer". All smart-phones are mobile computers IMO. Again, if you actually read my post before mounting your high-horse, you'd see that there are many factors which lead me to believe that Droid is likely to be better for me.
Wow. I'm no tutor, just giving my opinion. I agree with the other guy. Nothing wrong with that, Jay. Don't take my opinion so personally. We all have one, and its no crime. But I like your idea that all smartphones are mobile computers, and agree with that, just I think Maemo is the closest to fulfilling expectations of a mobile computer as most people know them, something most smartphones have only attempted.

So I won't call the N95 a mobile computer anymore, as I have in the past. Its the pinnacle of smartphones, and the N900 ushers in the new era, where a pocketable computer is finally more than a dream.

Now take it easy, and just realize I'm in love with this stuff. I know I'm everywhere, in every thread. All of that needless dissing of me wasn't necessary. I'm being polite, and I don't have to be. It'd be nice to be treated likewise. Not all advice is good advice. If it doesn't help you, just ignore it.
