I mostly used the N900 as a regular phone until today. My phone needed a reflash, so I figured once I backed everything out I should try a couple of things I've been postponing for a while.

First I installed titan's custom kernel and overclocked it to 700Mhz with the XLV profile. Not a huge performance increase, but for some reason it was noticeable. It was still stable at 850Mhz, but since I'm planning on keeping the N900 for a while, I decided to play it safe.

Then I installed the SSH daemon and client, and connected to my N900 from my laptop through wifi. I used apt-get to install a few CLI apps, like bash 3 and midnight commander.

Although I've owned the N900 for half a year now, I am absolutely, completely sold on it again. Whatever phone will replace it will have to offer similar freedom.

I am NEVER going back to Symbian, with its stupid signed apps and clunky ancient UI. I am not going to iOS either, because I hate the way Apple controls everything unless you jailbreak their iGadgets. There are two options for the future. Meego or Android...
