Since I am a new shopper here, and I have yet to place an order for the N900, I had to ask, what if any other items on the market right now (not coming out, but available now) can be used for direct comparison to the N900?
I've seen people compare them to an iPhone but... seems apples to oranges there.
Is there a comparable product? If not a direct competitive offering, is something close enough to compare?
Now, I do understand that since this is a handheld product that runs Maemo and yes you can run linux on various PDA/Smartphone products but since the N900 is a shipped product with Linux, does that make it unique enough to not have a real comparable competitor?
I have to ask as it feels like I'm looking at the only hydrogen car on the market while checking out the N900.

N900 is compared most often to android phones, palm pre, and iPhone. Not sure about which is apples and which is oranges.
