I've replaced the LCD, the digitizer and a battery. Plus I've spent countless dollars on locating the best screen protector/armor for my needs. I'd say all in all, mine has cost me around $1000 USD. Minimum 4 year investment.
I love this phone so much that I have replaced the digitizer for cosmetic reasons. And in the process of removing the framing, there ended up being a gap on one side of it. You can tell it was separated. Really bothered me, so replaced the framing today

That is the hardest part of taking apart the n900, the framing.

Have a martins field on there, getting annoying and might just take it off soon.

Great to hear everyone loves their n900.

Its not that every year you see devices like N900 and N95 being released by Nokia. I will keep this for atleast 3 yrs
Same for me. Been salivating ever since the pre-release of the N900, but could not justify to myself the cost of the unit. Managed to cope with my E90 up until now, then suddenly spotted a BuyItNow N900 on Ebay for £250.

Not been disappointed either. It's exactly what I hoped it would be. Love the fact you can get right into the core of the thing (caveats as I acknowledge some of the closed driver issues). E.g. playing with pulseaudio trying to find a sweeter spot than the current setup, or the fact you can chuck any old software at it and get it running.

I'll admit, it will definitely be a frustrating experience for those who have not been initiated in the art of Linux, but in my case, it's exactly what I've been looking for all these years.

I know nothing of linux, and love my N900 all the same If I broke it today, I would order another.

Im waiting for the "N9", asuming it is the next MeeGo phone with a hardware keyboard... I hope I can hang on to it until this N9 comes out, and proves itself to be an awesome device. This will be the first time, ever, that I will be hesitant to buy a top-end Nokia phone...

i think about 2-3years.

depends on MeeGo and Maemo 5.x an the apps/updates for the N900.
My last phone was a N95 8GB and I used it longer than 2 years.

Until a decent Meego device with a physical keyboard and a stylus (be it capacitive or resistive) appears. Might take some time.

Really, even though people complain a lot here (myself included), the N900 is a fantastic device like none other. I became dependent on it. Real GNU/Linux on the mobile, what an experience! No Windows Phone 7, Android or iPhone can't even get close to this.

Wow... What do you have against vowels? Lots of pain to read and trying to decipher your post. Think about the ones who are reading, pal. Please write whole words...

I'll be holding out for a Meego phone with a qwerty keyboard... So whenever that comes out I guess! I'm happy with my N900 anyway... I've still got 2 level packs to complete on Angry Birds so that'll take up my time!
