That's why a new cellular-less Maemo device would not be a real contender to the iPod Touch, even at the same price.

So you don't think N900 (with or without phone) can do the above at least as well as the iPod Touch? Hmm...

As to the rest of the phone aficionados: again, no one here is against having the N900 as a phone; we just want to have a Maemo alternative with a larger screen, bigger battery, HDMI out -- all the features that seem to be incompatible with the mobile phone philosophy.

It's all about openness and freedom of choice, isn't it?

Also, I am getting tired of customers defending the business decisions of a company -- talk about fanboism -- whose side are you on, really?
