Buy a cheapy Android phone for now and then saving for something in the 3rd quarter 2011. Wait to see what the N9 would bring and if is 5hit then just move your wagon and attach with the high end dual core droids Yes you've heard me, DUAL CORE droid (though the OS is not yet utilizing the multicores processor but soon in Android 2.4 may be)
I'm prepare to jump the cliff for that if Nokia release the N9 and it doesn't match my specification in modern Mobile device hardware. Seriously buying a Nokia is always 1 year behind in hardware spec

Unless the N9 and it's specs are announced and confirmed before the end of this week, Nokia has just lost another customer to Android.

Just watched a few videos of Honeycomb... Nokia, step up your game or surrender to Android.

I am more than happy with Maemo and the N900. Yes Nokia have all but abandoned it, but the community is incredible.
In the last few months alone we have recieved working and easy to use usb host mode, monitor mode and my favourite update to date... PACKET INJECTION!
Seeing the look on my brothers face when I was able to crack his wifi connection in 7 minutes was priceless

Yes it's fun to show off things that no other currrent device has like the FM transmitter, but that doesn't make up for the fact that the OS is missing or is lacking in areas that shouldn't be that hard for the Engineers at Nokia to fix or provide us with, out of the box or with minor updates.
Was MMS really that hard to implement?
FMMS always worked for me and I only used it maybe 5 times, but MMS, use it a lot or not at all is a basic mobile phone function.
The $50 Nokia my GF uses has it.

I have the latest NitDroid version installed on my internal emmc with multiboot and I spend a lot of time playing around with all the nice android apps. When installed to the internal memory, it's actually faster than plenty of android devices

yes its sux when you loose something. Been there lost few phones back in the days. But i would hold to buying new phone right now. Probably summer will bring something.
Personally I will not going to buy any phone in the near future until there going to be something significant like 1.5 Ghz and such an issues like flash player for example wouldn't be an issue at all and so on...

About the flash player thing, I have this to say:
I am not even considering buying a device that does not run the latest Flash Player and Adobe AIR apps.
I will miss the N900 keyboard and resistive screen and the openness of the OS.
But I don't care what OS or hardware the device has, no Flash no sale, no AIR no sale. Thank you.

What to do?..... I am not going to buy another N900, it is too outdated and the OS is a dead end now.
I guess I'll decide by the end of this week what device I am going to buy next.
Leaning heavily towards Android.
