I've had the N900 since December and I'm moving on for a number of reasons which I will list below but first here are the things I've loved about the device:

• Stylus
• Landscape screen
• Stereo Speakers
• GPS track time
• Flash incorporation
• Openness of the device
• 3G speeds
• Fatness of it.

A lot of those options happen to be what I hate about the device as well, The flash is there but it is slow and battery consuming, as of late I've just been using Opera and loving it, wishing I'd had it since the beginning which I would have with Android or an iPhone *gasp

The GPS track time is great but I don't have a good program to use it with! The google maps workaround while usable is slow, hard to use, and generally unfulfilling. I love the openness but the acceptability of this device is just too slow, I'm tired of waiting and waiting for good programs to come out which never do, there are a handful of quality programs for the N900 but that's where it ends and I just wait unfulfilled.

I'm not enough of a programmer to make my own programs or spend the time learning the code required to do it, I have a job, and hobbies which I don't want to sacrifice in order to get some program to do something that I could probably get for free on another phone. I guess as I move along in life time becomes more important and I'd rather pay a few extra bucks a month in order to get what I need when I need it.

The main turnoffs to me of the EVO are the lack of a keyboard (but this is part of what I love is how much skinnier it is than the N900), the extra price (which at $10/month is not that much really), lack of a stylus but I'll survive and probably find my productivity increase with programs made for finger use instead of stylus.

So now that I've had my rant you all can come in and tell me how wrong I am and maybe convince me to stay but for now I'm going to try out the EVO and the next iPhone when it comes out and decide from there which to go with. My phone bill will increase about $50 a month since I have an amazing deal with T-mo right now but to me it's worth it.
