No, 3 times hardware issues. I did install stuff from extras repositories, when the phone got too laggy, I just got rid of that stuff.
Also, I had to flash the new firmware. Too hard too make a decent over the air-update?
The problems: First time: The onscreen keyboard didn't appear anymore, later, i could only slide anymore. No more tapping.
Nokia gave me a new N900. This phone had white spots on the screen. As a photographer, it's just not done showing my portfolio with white/light spots on the screen (I could live with the lag when sliding through +-1000px images.). After a month, the screen was replaced. A few weeks went by: Suddenly, no more apps on my homescreens. No more menu-button and time indication. After rebooting the device, it just woulndt start anymore. It kept rebooting. (WAIT! Maybe it was just Nokia's way to finally give that reboot-function ) I went back to the store, they checked, and told me it was a hardware problem again. The phone is fixed now. And sold. Maybe my N900 was hexed. Maybe al of my Nokia's (except the oldscool ones).

And the speakers: Yes, they were good for a phone, surely if you compare it with HTC. That harsch htc-sound is a nightmare compared to the pretty deep and warm stereo sound of the N900. But now, in total peace with myself, I can accept that
