Well, having a changeable baseband just lets you unlock the device (GSM) or fix bugs.

This might explain why Androids always seem to be far more snappier and better in general as phones than the N900.
The N900 works in the same fashion. Not sure of the physical interface, but the baseband in the N900 (indeed, anything more advanced than your typical dumbphone and definitely anything that could possibly be unlocked) runs on its own processor.

The "snappiness" is definitely for other reasons.
