I just want to know what people dislike about the phone so I hear both sides of the arguement
why this phone is bad for you
+ you gonna have to pay for sygic maps - ovi maps is a steaming pile of sheer nokianess
+ there is a "game or two" in the form of angry birds etc anything else you either have to use emulators or buy a palm pre to get the games legally
+no support - but as a tech guy you wont care
+no flash - so web experience is subpar unless you run nitdroid full time

why this phone is good for
+ linux - this is a dev phone - you like to tinker - u r a perfect fit

conclusion - instead of buying sygic get a cheap 2nd hand gps. then buy the n900. you are the right user type.
