kakakakak that's why there's a kick stand =)) hahahahah

I don't like these kind of threads either, I just do my part in educating the users who consult me, I converted 6 users to Maemo and the N900 already, sure they need help, that's what the community is for.. we should all try to be fair for any platform and give the unbiased view on the merits of each. Surely Maemo and the N900 is not for everyone, but with help anybody could start enjoying this awesome platform and solid hardware.

i apologize for posting this thread then.

dont apologize!!!
this thrread isnt a "lets slate other phones" its basically what do you like about your phone.....a friendly comparison....
btw the way the great phone got better....
pr 1.1 is available......hehehehe

the devices should be speaking for itselfs so lets not sink to competitors level but give just as objective information about maemo5 & n900 as possible.

so, if somebody starts a thread: "can i xxx with n900", there is a good way to brag with your
a) own technical knowledge
b) open platform (if there is a solution available)

Maybe rename the thread to "Let's tell 'em what makes n900 so great!" ?

n900 being great is not everyones opinion, so that shouldnt be forced to anyone...

I think we have enough of those posts. I agree with ossipena that a thread which focused on what capabilities the N900 has versus what capabilities the competition has would be very useful, both to those of us, like myself, who haven't made a decision yet, and to users who might not know the possibilities that the N900 opens up.

Also note that most people buy a phone for what i can do or can easily be made to do. Multi-tasking is a very good feature which is available out of the box on the N900. There are also, I assume, very useful apps available here on at the Ovi store. Capabilities that are available only after you get root and execute a series of Linux commands are much less useful to the general public.
