much improved since 1.2. I have 2 instances of engadget in browser and music plays without fuss. Perhaps engadget fixed their bloated site.

Well it is a bit better but still stuttering alot while browsing in the bus for example. There has been lots of talk in bugs.maemo about this but only some effort. It is slowly but painfully becoming a deal breaker for me

N900 sound quality from 3.5 mm jack is outstanding. I have the Archos 402 and Zen 32gb flash players and the N900 is just as good as both of them, which are great.

Though I use the "Incredible" as my phone (hate the name, luv the phone), my N900 always goes with me as my main media player

I use MP3 and tend to be picky. Still, "picky" is in the mind of the beholder.

Some re-nicing of processes should help on this I think, but I'm not sure how exactly to do it the right way. Audio playing should have one of the most important priorities IMHO! Also of course overclocking might help - I've enoyed the speed with kernel 37 @ 500-950MHz without any problems.

Yes overclocking seemed to help. This isn't a good option but still something

I see some have Sennheiser, and I agree the CX500 is very nice but sennheiser lacks at the lower pitches IMHO. I use my N900 heavily for media e.g. music, so I want a good quality sound. I tried the equalizer on the 3rd party music player but I didnt like the app. After some research I bought Philips SHE8500 wich has excellent bass. Also high and mid sound excellent, comparable with a decent hi-fi home setup. Now I don't need an EQ, but going back to sennheiser feels like downgrading my music experience I agree there are some better but nowhere near the price of this one.

For more volume try alsamixer in xterminal

Code:

alsamixer -c0

The row on the left is the headset. If it is lower than 100 you could raise it.
