So I ask - what did you expect?
I'm expecting something significantly better than my N810.

The thing that worries me the most is navigation/mapping. I bought my N810 hoping to use it as a GPS. I gave up on that after being profoundly disappointed with every solution I tried.

My fantasy is that the N900 will (soon) have a navigation/mapping solution as good (and as free) as Verizon's Droid.

If navigation/mapping is a bust on the N900, I will be very disappointed. And if I can't use navigation/mapping without a data connection, I'll be upset (and, based on some reports, it looks like I will indeed be upset).

I believe I will be pleased with everything else about the N900 based on what I have seen/read.
