Wow...........!!
incase you're interested its quite easy to setup, i just did the install using ddosbox on my laptop then copied the windows directory to the n900 in the directory i mount as c: in dosbox.
could in theory do the same with win95 but i cant try it cos i dont have a working set of the install files. hmmm but im sure i have a win98 cd somewhere haha.

I got my Vodafone N900 from MPD. and it is technically the phone with a sim contract put in the box
No branding apart from the usual telling you what service you are connected too
- and i've changed that on mine, so no Vodafone anywhere

Quick question!
I ordered my N900 on Saturday and it is due to come Tuesday (all being well), so shipped today.
I have got an email saying it has been despatched, however it says this under new number/imei etc -
$$$SMARTLIFT_PARAM_MOBILE_NUMBER$$$
Has anyone else had that, and if so has it all been ok? I assume their system is just bugged and/or it doesn't apply unless your number has been ported etc. (My number isn't being ported)
