Hey,
I've been reading almost every thread that popped here for about 3 weeks now, since I decided I want the N900 (I had a serious dilemma weather to choose the N900 or the Milestone but I ended up with the n900).
I got my N900 today and I finally decided to join.

For the past two years I've been an iPhone user. After a month of using the iPhone I understood that it really was just a gimmick and not a serious device (I have that opinion on every apple device, but that's for another discussion ). What I really missed with the iPhone is the "open-ness" and I think that the only device today that can offer that feature with such an amount of "freedom", so to speak, is the N900. I've been playing with it since early noon (Israel time) and it has yet ceased to amaze me. The only hiccup I had by now is pairing it to my Car's bluetooth stereo\handsfree (Kenwood KCA-200 bluetooth module).

The transition from the iPhone so far has been great, Multitasking is so strage for me, because as an iPhone user I didn't had any... So I'm constantly finding myself closing the browser instead of 'minimizing' it and such.
On the bottom line - N900 feels like home to me and so does this community as I'm a Linux expert at my job.

I'm looking forward to be an active part of this community and to contribute my knowledge and to learn from others.
