All in all I'm very pleased with it- although I'm finding the scrolling difficult- the bar is very thin and i keep opening things inadvertently. I'm ot used to touchscreen though- coming from an N95

EDIT- Oh and charger was dead on arrival, so I'm using my old N95 charger with the adapter. breathed a sigh of releif when the orage light came on with that I can tell you.
Mine hasn't rebooted at all yet although I do have the bug where after playing a video its refusing to play any now saying the aren't supported.

First impressions, my god the screen is FAR more readable than I feared. Can comfortably read this forum without zooming at all. But it is a REALLY heavy device, but I tend to keep a lot of loose change in my right pocket on my coat and phone in the left - so will probably balance out for me.

How I set mine up? I plugged it straight into my laptop and it immediately started charging and showed up as mass storage device (shocked me that as I had not turned on the N900 yet so I wasn't expecting it).

After I copied all my music over (had already transcoded all my iPod music collection over to FLAC days ago) I set off in search of getting telepathy-haze installed which ended it tragedy, Extra Devel just isn't working right now. Anyway I settled for installing a ton of junk and ogg-support.

Everything working apart from what I already mentioned above. Sound quality is amazing but then my iPod music has all been pre-EQd as I found the iPod Touch really poor sounding even with its EQ. N900 a billion times better sound quality than the iPod, shame the Media Player sucks on the N900 especially as ogg-support does not support tags yet.

Now heres hoping I do not suffer the reboot plague as anything else I can deal with, even if I have to fight to get video playback working again (ironically I am hoping a reboot will sort it).
