For me anything branded Nokia is straight off the list of possible alternatives. This turkey has destroyed any faith I had in their phones. And as I have some say in my firms mobile phones and spending, they won't be darkening our door anytime soon either.

I love open source but I also like functioning hardware and workable OS and the N900 isn't. Nothing I want in work can be done on the N900 that can't be done better on other phones and so I am now back to my tytn2 which is 2 years old and runs cruddy winmo6.

So I will probarbly look at Android, perhaps the desire, though I have to make the argument with myself for finances. I wasted £486 on the N900 and can't afford to do that again. So I am hoping the tytn 2 holds out long enough and by then something new will come along. It will be HTC though as they very rarely churn out dodgy hardware. And most likely not the Win 7 as that is lining up to be even worse because they are just copying Apple. Perhaps Android 3 because we are talking next year for my next phone.
