Well Shockgiga, I had to pay MYR 1,600 for my N900 (the prices here are d@mn stupid). That's like USD 500 or 266 Big Macs. So normally I would do more purchase research rather than just rely on ads.

FYI, I was using the E65 which broke and I was comparing the N900 with N97 mini, E72 (or iPhone) less geeky devices. Even the Nokia sales tried to persuade me to get the N97 mini, but I just felt the N900 was better. I'm glad I made the choice!
