Maybe I'm missing something, but what bugs/flaws does the phone have that make it unusually annoying? It seems perfect to me!

Thanks.
Annoyances on the N900 -
  • Slow to respond , at times, phone application
  • Virtual keyboard editing bug that scrambles text when using the virtual keyboard and you make a mid string edit.
That's about it for me. I'm overclocked fulltime at 250/1100. I love it and would be pushing you out of line at Amazon if I lost mine.

I am not a linux geek or even a linux lover. I bought this phone knowing I knew nothing about linux and would have to learn. From this point of view it has been incredible for me. I'm thinking of signing up at the Community College for a linux class because I've noticed my eyes glaze over when more than three lines of code are posted here.

When I was getting my BA degree I had to learn how to use a punch card machine to enter my data. I also had to schedule very scarce "computer time" to run it through SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) on whatever main frame the school was using. I think it was an IBM 360. Having this in my pocket is very "science fiction come to life" for me

Also, welcome to maemo.org forum. Super group of folks who keep trolls as pets.
