I can't add much to what others have said. My usage is different to yours. My N900 is a replacement for a Palm TX (I want a TX with better web features). I use the PIM apps and he N900 versions are OK but not a patch on the TX yet.

The screen is a bit small for my older eyes but the quality is good and the zoom is easy. I like the keyboard more than I expected to (but it can be awkward). It's much lighter than the N810 - which I thought I would use a lot but the PIM apps weren't good enough, so it stayed in the drawer a lot.

My main reason for posting is to say that I've had no problems in the week I'v had it. (touch wood!)
