Hey there Newbie here great boards!!!

Have been thinking of getting a N900 for a while and I'm due for an upgrade next month, I'm based in the UK. I'm not a programmer but I am a bit of a technology geek and I think I know what I am getting myself into.

Currently I own a Samsung Omnia I900 and I have been happy with it for the 18months or so it does everything I wanted but the physical key pad/qwerty of the N900 really appeals.

The thing is on many top ten lists the HTC Desire, Iphone 3Gs seem to always be at the top with the N900 being lower down. However from my point of view as I have an Omnia, the Desire and Iphone seem like improvements on the same theme whereas the N900 seems like something else entirely

I like to do the normal things with my phone now email, browsing, text, listen to music, watch movies etc and the N900 has got good reviews where all those things are concerned. As far as apps go I'm not overly concerened with a crazy amount apps. I went through a phas with my omnia when I had loads of apps and then ended using about 6 regularly.

I've been scouring these boards for more info into whether I'm making the right decision for me. If possible I'd much appreciate it if anyone could point me in the direction of threads that will give me more info and insight on whether the N900 is the right way to go.

Thanks in advance.
