Frequency does not matter to me, but from your first post it seemed that it did matter much to you.

Regarding OS:
Android is much better than iOS by the simple fact that it is based off Linux, but even thats not good enough for my phone.
I like it, but I prefer Maemo/Meego over Android.

About a week into playing with my wife's HTC G2, I realized that I really preferred my n900 over Android. Why?
Because for everything I needed, there was a Linux app.
The desktop Linux community is much more active and productive and stable than Android can hope to be, and the n900 gets much of its great capabilities as a side effect of the desktop Linux world being what it is.
For those things that there wasn't a Linux app, there was someone who was willing to make it - which benefits maemo as well as Linux - and thus there is more motivation to do it.

tl;dr: Frequency is irrelevant, Linux rules, n900 is the best.
