Don't say that too loudly. The forum moderators seem to be far more thread-close-happy than usual. They might just make the jump to closing out ALL competitor talk that isn't negative, at this rate. :P Heh.. I had a constructive and interesting conversation in one thread that got closed out before I could even respond to questions someone had been asking me just because it was a MeeGo-critical thread. (ref: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...399#post935399 ...you'll note Reggie didn't get any thanks for that.). Oh well. I'm glad I found the Android platform's communities (plural!) in addition to this one when I did. Droid Fans on Facebook in particular has been LOTS of fun, actually. And, best of all, they seem to be optimistic and motivated. Something I haven't seen here in a long time.

I digress and agree with your sentiments. I'm still waiting for a proper upgrade from my N800. I still haven't seen it on ANY platform--even the mothership Maemo itself. That Toshiba very, very nearly meets my requirements in a lot of ways but still falls short in a few significant areas. (True open-source OS, preferably Debian based, HID profile bluetooth/mouse (maybe it will?), small--pocket sized preferably, etc)
