Some N900 users are a kick
Reasons to return the N900 if you are more a smartphone user and less tech.
1. Laggy more than it should be (pressing icons and nothing happens or a delay)
2. Weak 2G radio (unless the three I had were all defective)
3. Minimal apps available and not looking much better (in regards to commercial apps)
4. To get the most out of the device you need to be more tech oriented- this device is not for consumers that just want apps and a smartphone.
5. Very weak portrait integration that will likely not get much better
6. Lack of picture mms that more people use than email attachments on smartphones
7. Weak map integration
And all of this is coming from a rube like me who LOVES the N900 due to its media ability and handy as a Mini-Me netbook. Still, I use my G1 as a smartphone and the N900 as everything else.
BTW, I hope I am wrong as heck about the long-term app status, portrait mode, mms picture, etc, but the longer this stuff takes to happen, the less likely it will. Maemo 6 and new devices are on the horizon.
