Why should the N9 be hard to get in Austria? It was one of the countries where Nokia originally released it. Even it is no more available from the operators (after three months, which is sad), you should get it from every good webstore. If unsure, just order it from amazon.de

you are right of course . I should've written it properly: it isn'T available from my phone provider (I think either 3 or tmobile have it )
"Problem" is that I like to use the pen with my N900. the N9 doesn't have a pen anymore and - correct me if I'm wrong- is finger optimized and won'T work well with pens -- or does it?
Having looked at a Samsung Note in a shop I do like the feel of it - unfortunately it was one of those without battery so you can'T bu tit on but whatever - and the fact it has a pressure sensitive pen! now If that could run Maemo or Meego .. hmm that would be cool

3 and T-Mobile both had it back in October when the N9 was released. Now three months later both dropped it in favor of the Lumia 800...![]()
Seeing that quick drop of availability of the N9 (in Australia Vodafone also doesn't offer it anymore after three months), I decided to buy me a second unlocked N9 to be safe.

Ask yourself - Is your phone a tool or a toy ?
Because when the "hardcore" speak, many treat theirs as a toy for recreational tinkering rather then for functionality - hence insistence on full open source. Face it - unless you are a sysadmin of some type or work in unix env full time (and some do on here), terminal and FOSS is not going to increase your productivity.
if your phone is a tool, then there are a myriad of phones out there for you. You dont have to love your tool, as long as it does its job, who gives a flying fvck whether its open or not.

But i once bought a zte blade, which i later gave to a friend since i found out that i really hated android and bouht a second N900 instead, but i kept the charger from it which is extremly small, and which i always bring with me in my pocket.
Unfoutunately, there wont be a worthy replacement for the n900 before Kubuntu, plasma, windows xp or something similar gets onto a decent gsm/4G-hardware.And that will probably thake a while ;(
Deskypplet , a desktop for N900 *RIP*
