I have been using the N900 as my Main an Only phone since 2009.

History:

- December 2009: Bought my First N900, Loved it since.
- August 2010: N900 stolen, had to use a dumbphone for some time, nightmare...
- September 2010: Bought my second N900, still alive an kickin'
- July 2012: Bought a used one (like new) from Ebay for $250, stored just-in-case.

Bought my 3rd N900 today... (just 60 euros) but only for geocaching purposes really using AGTL / advancedcaching.
(BTW Not a good timing to reinstall this new N900 now, I cannot install packages, maemo.org too slow!)

Bought my first N900 early 2010, I crashed it while cycling through Amsterdam a month ago.
Bought a 2nd hand N900 as backup mid 2011, gave it away last year as...
I bought an N9 in 2012, and really love it. So that's my main phone right now. I do miss some of the functionalities of the N900 and the constant stream of new apps in the community.

I DID IT!!! I successfully flashed both of my N900's cleanly! One of them has a really bad usb port though, so using the bad one first until it dies. I will try to fix the usb later

Between the repositories being down for weeks (months?) and GoogleVoice now being unusable with the RTCOM client...it won't be my main phone for much longer.

Just yesterday I used shorcutd to map the camera button to a "custom shell command", the command being the dbus command to answer the call. I don't know yet if this will solve the screen button lag problem; I'm testing it now.

N900 is my phone since its coming to market. Combined with its
  • multitasking
  • root-access
  • CSSU
  • IPv6-capability
  • OpenVPN 2.3
  • fully functional terminal
  • hardware keyboard
It's unmatched. Nothing since 2010 ever came close to such a phenomenal pocket device. It's beautiful, small and as powerful as a netbook. It has a hardware keyboard that allows interaction without loosing the little display space a smartphone has to offer to a stupid virtual keyboard.

I will definitelly get a Jolla Sailfish device - N900 still will remain as daily used device. The new devices will have to have at least N900 capabilities before it gets replaced.

Thank you, Nokia, for creating such a superior device and platform and damn you for abandoming it prematurely. Burn in hell with WPx, traitor.

Been using it since I got one summer 2010.

I've had two fail on me with "All Telephony Functions Have Been Disabled" errors, whereupon I just buy another one, and retire the older ones for programming on, experimenting with possibly reflash-inducing stuff, and the like.

I still use the n900 daily as main phone, and don't really want to change until it breaks or a better phone comes out.
