I actually expected it to be bigger.....but I just put it in my handbag phone pocket or my coat pocket. However, in summer i dont think I could walk around with it in my jeans pocket, unless i wear boyfriend jeans every day!!Apart from feelng uncomfortable it would also be pretty obvious prey for all those pickpockets around in Florence....I mean sort of 'Hey! she's got a N900 in her back pocket, let's move!'.After reading this thread i got my boyfriend to check out if he could put the n900 in his pocket, he found it no problem, even in his inner jacket pocket......he also suggested a small messenger bag which all men/young boys seem to carry with them in Italy. Evidently all this hardware is getting pretty heavy so all these males turn to designer bags!! :-) especially when it gets to 40° in the summer months and you're obviously short of clothes never mind pockets to stick a phone in.
So in conclusion it's largish, solid, can double as a netbook, fits in your pocket....and is perrrrfect!
