iphone does the job it advertises.
N900 advertised MfE. MfE for me means being able to connect to work email as with E71.
Not so with N900, MfE different on this device and does not deliver.
And if the N900 had even basic provisioning (i.e. password and remote wipe), perhaps this chap wouldn't be worrying so much about his personal data: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=41435
