Hi Peter, and thanks for asking the community on this one.

You obviously know what you're looking for, but I guess data is nothing without context, so I'll be brief:

I'm not a Developer, power or tech user - just a regular guy who loves the power of the N900 to switch tasks rapidly.

I rarely use data services away from home wireless LAN (I use a PAYG plan)

Most of the time I run 3 to 6 apps concurrently, these typically including:

• Messaging (all my Twiter and FB feeds come in via text)
• Recaller (allways on, allways used)
• Callendar
• K9 Call keyboard widget
• Conboy
• Gpodder
• MediaBox or Media Player
• Email (for reference - only check for new emails twice a day)

I would run Ovi Maps pretty much all the time, but as it is it has little use for me without voice guidance, re-routing, offline searching or the ability to work without AGPS.

I'm not mentioning this to have a dig, but Ovi maps was something I really, really miss from my X6 and ran pretty much all the time. I think a lot of people would use it if it actually worked

I typically have twice as many apps open in the evening as in the day when I'm out & about.

Hope this helps!
