Heh.

More fool me. I won't make that mistake again. 434mhz ARM11 with NO GPU! Omg. And it only became barely useable after 2 Firmware updates!

Anyway, I got my N900 coming tommorow (The phone that I should have got in November 2009). I can't wait. Gonna be spending tommorow clearing all my stuff off of the N97, then I'm putting it up for sale.

I doubt I'll get very much for it though.
Same happened to a friend of mine who bought the n97 thinking it was Nokia's flagship device (it was marketed as such and the name helped). We were both pretty astonished looking at my n81 and his brand new n97 running picodrive side by side. I couldn't believe how much better the framerate was on my one year old n81. Anecdotes aside, the N900 is a whole different beast. I think you'll enjoy it.
