True, all I am saying is that there are also hard practical reasons why I prefer the current N900.

Well, needs are a funny thing. I used to think that the Palm TX covered all my "needs".

Many of the things I mentioned on my above list of questions were completely absent from the Palm TX. What happened? Where did those needs come from? Well, they came from using them on the N900. Now I am spoiled and don't want an inferior device.

Yup. And, precisely because I don't see a device that meets those likes/dislikes in the horizon, I just purchased a second N900 to be safe.
