Hi all, first post here. I thought I'd kick things off by sharing why I decided to purchase the N900.

Form Factor
It fits in my pocket, which makes it always handy. There are many situations where carrying and starting up a laptop, even the size of a netbook, is inconvenient.

Web Browsing
Runs Firefox Mobile, which by all accounts provides the best web browsing experience of all pocket devices.

Tethering
I currently use an embedded 3G chip in my laptop to access the internet when I am away from other networking options. I'll be saving $20 a month by switching over to T-Mobile's $40 internet only plan.

I have read about a lot of hand-wringing over Meego and what it will bring, but I am not terribly worried that it may never reach the N900. After all, I don't know what Meego really means to me yet. I have a Blackberry Curve that I will continue to use for voice calls. The camera, Ovi maps, etc. are all "nice to have", but not critical. However, I do expect all features to perform as advertised. I understand that it is a new device, and some bugs must still be worked out.

Anyway, it arrives in about a week, and I am very excited.
