Actually, having been forced back to my e90 while I wait for my n900's usb port to be fixed, I must say that I dont find it that much better than the n900's any more...

Of the list from the OP:
Quickly edit .xls files <<----- My main usage!!!
Edit .doc files
Hell yeah. I have been wary of installing Abiword and Gnumeric as they haven't made it to extras. Can anyone comment on their stability? Have they been optified? Indeed, have they been packaged?

View .ppt files
Personalized Ringtones
Would be nice, but I didn't bother that much with either on the e90; the former would be better on the n900s screen I suspect.

Caller's Name "spoken" during Ring
True dat. Very handy feature.

"Call Log Export" {->.csv including duration of call}
Pin Documents on Desktop {open document, not open program}
File browser needs to show/edit extensions
All get "meh" from me, but each to their own.

Calendar: Events to minute: E.g. ISS visible 19:37 - 19:42
Again, hell yeah. The calendar backend can handle it, the UI is just foolishly crippled.
