My poor reception issue in low 2G areas almost made me make "the call" to Dell to return the N900. Then all of it's sexiness lured me away from the phone:

1. Great web
2. Lots of fun Flash games play great
3. Music sound quality and nice volume level
4. Killer codec support for video
5. New Maemo interface and its interesting newness
6. Current emulators show great old school potential
7. Quake 3 and other future ports- you KNOW Duke Nukem must be coming.
8. Cool, though sometimes "lovingly" sarcastic Maemo Talk forum folks.

The N900 is like a sexy lady who you know will eventualy screw you over (in this case, probably getting stuck on a remote Kentucky road- not able to get a signal), but you can not turn away from its beauty.

I also feel like Smeagol from Lord of the Rings, muttering about "my preciousss".

I think I will watch one of the LOTR movies tonight- extended edition
