Cheers guys...just thought I should put over my experience. The N900 just blows everything I've used away and the potential is awesome (and I've had an N80, N93, N95, N95 8Gb, Samsung i8510, i8910 HD, and iPhone - shudder-)

Regarding the resistive screen: I prefer being able to use the stylus at times to be honest, especially with this crazy high resolution! Call me old fashioned.

Just need to eek a bit more battery life, get the OVI store up, and solve a few niggles in the firmware; but this is the most stable initial firmware any of my Nokia's have ever had.

christexaport - thanks for the compliment...I studied for a degree and masters in music on the piano and violin at uni; so I guess I went into a semi-related performance industry lol
