My issue with that review is the conclusion "If applications or music is important to you, then look elsewhere." Come on??? Music??? Just because "When it comes to mobile devices, I usually install Pandora or a Last.FM application to stream music". This is a very unusual pattern for the rest of the world: music streaming is either very expensive when on the road or shunned upon on office environments, so can only be done at home.
The N900 offers a fantastic media player, TuneWiki integration, internet radio, FM radio, FM transmitter, great audio output for headphones, bluetooth AD2P and DNLA support. Mine even has 48 GB of storage.

And don't even start me on the applications...
