I'm confused by the headset - the specs say a WH-205 which looks like a nice small set with soft earbuds.
But the photo in the specs shows shows a headset that is much more scary.
I never liked my n800 headset and always carry a set of headphones for music only.

Do I understand correctly that it has only 256Mb RAM ? That's only double than N810 which is almost 3 years older.
How much can you achieve with 256Mb when you have a full Firefox browser.
I'm very afraid the history is going to repeat itself (N770, G1 Android, etc): we're going to ran out of RAM and next version will have more RAM out of the factory.
Why can't they put 1Gb RAM from start ?! It's not that expensive.

No MMS? 
That's bad. I write and recieve 10-20 MMS a week... would be great if this feature could be added software-wise in a (near) future upgrade.

Heh, no MMS (not that I care one bit), but just wait for the "oh you all bashed iPhone for not having in and now your holy grail Nokia does not have it!" comments to start.
never mind, i see now, it do not show up in the specs under messaging...
quim, feel like verifying or denying?

Yes. If it's a mobile phone it should fit in your pocket and not look stupid with holding it like a 5-6" brick to your ear.

There is accelerator, but nothing about screen rotation. Did I miss something?

I'm confused about the 3G data connectivity. First of all, the n900 doesn't have any frequency that is relevant to me in Canada, but does " Maximum speed PS 384/384 kbps (DL/UL) HSPA 900/1700/2100" seem really slow to anyone else? My E71 technically connects to Rogers' 7.2Mbps network and I typically get 1-2Mbps in speed tests. 384kbps is a big step backwards...
