I'm always interested to know if people actually read the manual and find it useful?

Months ago, when it was first released. What else was I supposed to do while I waited for the phone to be released?

I read the manual from the pdf well before I even got the device in my hand. Saying that I still forgot how to do a number of things.

did you find it useful?

i won't read it from beginning to end, but i will definatly have a look at it since the n900 has much to offer and maybe i can get some tips out of it!

Now you mention it, I'll have a gander at the manual later...it is the first Maemo phone manual I've ever checked out.

just to look up for hidden features .

Play about for 15 minutes pretty much cover 80% of the User Guide

I only read the User Guide to find out the proper way to open the cover to put in the sim :P

yes, and I don't even own an N900 yet

You get pretty bored refreshing shipping status websites so in between I read it. Feel like less of a person actually after I did...
