I have never used, seen, nor ran into a person with average or higher intelligence with a fart app on their iPhone. Perhaps the circle I run with that actually do own the iPhone or iPad don't fall into the "Oooh! I need a fart app" - just buy Taco Bell and be done with it.

I didn't want OpenPandora - having an Nintendo DSi, Sony PSP and access to very capable and modern gaming systems resolves that. I have... Angry Birds, Fruit Ninja and Reckless Driving on my Android phone.

That's it.

I don't see a gaming platform. I see a phone. I don't care for mobile Safari. Never have. I use Dolphin HD on my Android phone and I use Perfect Browser on my iPad.

To open a spreadsheet on the iPad - I use Numbers. Or Readdle. Or QuickOffice. You have to install EasyDebian, then OpenOffice. The whole part that you lot are overlooking... let's see how many new apps that do not require EasyDebian or NITDroid will come out for Maemo 5 in say... 6 months or so.

Let's talk then. The words "high and dry" immediately come to mind.

Glad your friend found the N900 immediately accessible. I did too. I just like being supported in the odd situation I need the company that made my phone to actually be able to fix my probs.
