i got the N900 because i found myself using the internet more and more on my old phone. i wanted internet, sms, emails and skype was a massive bonus. i'm not and advanced user but this phone is everything i wanted, and i'm not dissapointed, i changed from the iphone 3g I'm bored with apple, for a cool high tech cutting edge technology company you would think they would have changed the design by now. and i'm tired of being dictated to by what i can and cannot do with a phone for which I PAID for..the screen isn't as good on the n900 as it is on the iphone but the N900 is far superior in every other aspect, and i will be sticking with nokia tablets from now on as long as they offer phone functionality
