I am glad that you are happy and satisfied with your N900. What raises my curiosity is why the Streak should be so lacking in your comparison.

If you could find the time to elaborate perhaps you could post in more detail?

Where does the Streak fall short? Is it in screen quality – clarity, resolution, sharpness, colour reproduction.

Or is it more related to general optimisation, overall speed including opening web pages.

Is it lack of compatibility with standards, e.g. Flash, video playback, audio playback, codec support. Could it be to do with a paucity of useful applications?

Do you find the size and weight to be unwieldy? Is it the physical keyboard on the N900 that makes all the difference for you?

Sorry for so many questions but you are adamant in your preference for the N900, no reason why not so I am not posing this as an argument or a challenge, it is just that I would have expected there to be less of a difference in it then you clearly have found.

I am puzzled as well by the combination of these two devices in order not to have need for a netbook. Can you elaborate here as well? What is you do on a netbook than be done equally as well on a Streak and what else on the N900 and vice versa.

To declare my interest, the Streak is on a short list of two at the moment and I really need more personal opinions to help me decide. Also I can’t help but experience a twinge of envy over the contents of your gadget bag. I hope you get great enjoyment and use from your devices.

Thanks for the reference to Fonebank, i too am selling a 3GS in order to help fund my next purchase and this source is new to me.
