I never understood all the negativity against the n900. I'm an not into linux, but I had no problem overclocking mine, the only task so far where I input commands into the x-terminal. The N900 works great, and anything newer will not affect how MY phone works. I love the programs I have installed from extras, the camera is wonderful, and the phone works great and has top notch reception. I have no problem recommending the n900 to friends, and still do. One of mine just picked up one last week and loves it.
