Looks like I am very similar to a lot of people posting of late. I am new to Maemo, lured in by the N900 and the potential therein. What really sold me was the integrated phone capabilities. I always wanted an internet tablet, but couldn't justify carrying yet another device around with me.

As a bonus, the N900 has opened me up to the world of open source and Linux. While I am not a complete noob to Linux (I use a Linux system at work), I am now tempted to divide my hard drive on my laptop at home and install either Ubuntu or Linux Mint. (Any suggestions?)

I believe that there are many people who will have a similar story to mine. The N900 will open this market up to a lot of tech savy non-programmers who are looking for a ultra-portable computer that can also serve as a phone. The lines between phones and computers are blurring and I believe that this will change the way we interface with the digital world.
