I bought an N900 as I was intrigued to see whether it was a viable alternative to carrying a Laptop whilst traveling.

Little did I realise that I also bought into a great (and for the most part helpful) community.

It's quite refreshing to go onto a forum where most folk are positive and are keen to help each other

I have some Linux knowledge and have enjoyed "getting in about" xterm though I certainly don't have the skills to design an app myself which makes me appreciate more the work of the developers.

As a result of the efforts of the Community, in the 9 months I have had my N900, not only has it replaced my laptop when I'm traveling but also my PDA.

Here's to the future...
