Is the sound quality on the n900 as good as an iphone or ipod?

If I'm not mistaken, N-series phones have always got decent headphones-out (circuitry, amp, etc.). Waiting for a review from an 'audiophile' who's already got an N900...

I remember reading it used the same audio output as the N97. It should sound fairly good.

It's about as nice of a headphone amp as they come. The 3.5mm out sounds absolutely amazing. The built-in speakers pump better than most laptops.

No offence, but please don't refer to the Iphone as a benchmark for sound quality.
As for now, the N900 lacks music dedicated software (like EQ and much more in this area), but that's probably the only disadvantage, which is a temporary one, since it can easily be fixed in the future. Remember, software can be updated, while hardware can't.

Nice to read that. From my last N-series experience, I know that Nokia does not disappoint anyone in this topic. I would not expect something different now!
