Besides all that, I thought the N900 wasn't a phone? At least, that seemed to be the defense for EVERY criticism put against it about all the lack of features and problems it has with being a reliable phone. The mantra been repeatedly, "It's a computer first, with phone functions." As a phone, it's pretty bad by most accounts I've read and from the known problems--your anecdotal experience aside.
Please take my anecdotal experience into account also -- there's nothing wrong with the N900 as a phone in my experience.

By the way, how can you charge someone with relying on anechdotal experience who at least has an N900? Are you relying on scientific studies of the N900? What journal printed them?

I would say that for most purposes, personal experience would trump about anything. The thing that doesn't trump personal experience for sure is the kind of experience you have -- none.
