From experience it does have one major thing in common with the N900 - appalling battery life. That's why I got rid of my G1 and the N900 spends most of its time in a drawer as a curiosity gathering dust, and why I now use a Milestone (which is solid for a full day) as my all in one comms device . The N900 might be the best geek toy in the world, but the tiny battery just cripples it. A mobile device is no good to me if I can't trust it away from a power source for more than half a day.
