I am shocked that some supposedly smart people in this thread can say that the N900 isn't a good deal -- and they don't mention price! Surely price has something to do with it, and the personality of the purchaser must be relevant as well.

I would say that $200 is a good price right now, if you aren't worried about lack of support from Nokia and will take support from the user community.

I personally have hardly ever relied on support from any computer manufacturer. I have often been told outright lies by customer service personnel, which doesn't surprise me since I worked in customer support for years myself and I know what others working in that field are trained to do by the companies that hire them.
