I just watched the interview with dr ari jaaksi and he mentioned that the n900 will not work with Nokia Music, which I have begun to use lately. Is there PC software that will sync music to the n900?

The n900 works like a usb stick when pluged-in. So you just copy over the files that you want. No need for a fancy music syncing software.

There's not really any special program that's needed. Plugging in the N900 will have it show up as a USB hard drive so you can do what you want with it... there's no N900-specific music syncing app needed as far as I know.

I like the idea of a fancy syncing app though, something clean/elegant/functional where I can organize and configure details, album art, and set playlists then transfer to the device.

Well then look if your syncing app supports normal mp3 players.

When I plug my n800 into an Ubuntu machine, it detects it as a media device to sync to.

I just noticed something interesting, it gives each n800 partition, a small iPod icon, and the ones that have music I'm prompted to sync with rythmbox, and the ones that have photos I'm prompted to sync with F-Spot.
