Hello all,

My name is Dan and I have an emotional problem. I bought an N900 a week or so back and love it, being somewhat familiar with linux/terminal I'm excited about the potential of this phone, I also love the hardware. BUT I just can't get rid of my trusty N95, it's battered, it's bruised but it is the Millenium Falcon of mobiles.

All joking aside I do really like the N900 especially its view of SMS/IM being essentially the same and the integration of Google Voice/Skype/GTalk. My irritations so far are that the media parts of it (camera options, music playlists) seem to be behind the N95/Symbian. I suppose part of the fun/challenge of this phone is that if there is something you don't like, then learn to code and change it! That's an incredibly freeing concept for a consumer, especially in the very closed world of mobile phones.

As for the MeeGo "what's next?" issue, my belief is that phone OS development will follow a Mozilla/Netscape model (open vs commercial not successful vs choked by the competition!).

Anyway, psyched to have the device.

Cheers
