ha ha i wrote a similar topic when i first came on here. that was months ago. i should be getting my n900 today, HOPEFULLY. I got freaked out by so many negative posts but now i cant be assed to wait any more. there are no other phones out at the moment that i like as much as the n900. so thought i would go for it, if i dont like it i will return it

Trust me, though not perfect and sometimes irritating, the N900 is the best gadget I have ever used. Its open to near infinite possibilities which more than makes up for quirks. The possibility of firmware updates should iron out current kinks and quirks leading to an even better device. My iPod touch is gathering dust because of this beast. Go for it.

I love my phone and would not part with it even tho i worry about the usb prob however i would recommend vodafone rather then nokia direct simply because vodafone are still saying they will do all the resolve this issue re the usb and would not leave their customers with a broken phone. They posted it recently on their forum again reiterating this.

My only downside re this phone is the keyboard its too small and i wish it would bigger :0( abit more like the HTC touch pro 2 would have been better.

It's arrived! All seems well so far. Found a couple of games to keep my 8 year old amused, and I've run a couple of updates. Need to find some URLs for UK radio stations for the Internet Radio, but happy so far. I haven't worked up to setting up email yet, which might be a problem looking at threads elsewhere, and I've not been able to download gPodder yet - I'm guess it needs me to look into Maemo to download, because the downloads stick at 0% so I'll have a play later.

You should have told me. I have mine for sale at a discount rate.
