I can guarantee you I will get more use and enjoyment out of my WP7 phone than you will out of your n900.

For me, its the right choice. Certainly it has some lockdowns, but the additional services it offers that the n900 does not now, nor will ever have far outweigh any inconveniences any lockdowns will cause. I think the only thing I'll miss will be the multitasking. Then again, thats coming down the pipe soon for WP7 so I won't miss it long.

Finally, I won't be dealing with the subpar camera interface. I won't be stuck on the road wanting to get a song that isn't on my n900 with no easy way to get it. I won't be missing turns because Ovi maps sucks (can't tell you how many times this has happened).

Sure I won't be able to run apache off it, but that was only ever really a gimmick anyway.
