I'm a debian linux user for 5 years and I think the same too. My N900 totally integrates itself with my desktop linux locally and remotely. My bad experience with mobile gears was the infamous FAT file system that caused my data to be corrupted and devices need to be formatted at least once a year really wore me out and I searched and found N900.

N900 comes with MyDoc partition pre-formatted with FAT too. And it recognizes SDHC with FAT. I have got the latter part solved and it's now in ext3 format and stable. My next step is to get the internal memory to full ext3 or nilfs2 or reiserfs. Ultimately, I intend to have debian running on N900 which some projects I notices are in the work.

Cheers, fellow N900 users.
