When I saw this thread I thought it was tied to a fatal NokiaWorld announcement. And here it's just another opinion piece.

I think that the people don't know what are they buying when they bougth a N900. It's the best piece of hardware in the market :S
I had an iPhone 3GS and now have a N900 and the iPhone it's a toy compared whith the Nokia mobile computer.
Learn to use it before throw up **** in the forum all day.

Rather than admit that they don't have the aptitude to use the device, they go off on a stomp and say it's cr@p.

There is a reason for Ubuntu' s popularity: The fact that it is so easy to use and install. However, that is the exception to the rule, not the other way around. I run Ubuntu as one of my three OS's, the other two being Gentoo and WinXP. Whenever friends or family have made up their mind and want to switch to a Linux flavor, I will install Ubuntu for them. Easy to install, easy to use and it's user interface is quite nice. I would never install Gentoo on someone's machine, as it is way too time-consuming to maintain and get those users to learn to maintain the machine. Maemo and Ubuntu are not comparable, in my opinion, in terms of being ready for end users out of the box.
Neither would I advice any non-techy to buy an n900.

OP should never have bought the N900. It has been wasted on him.
He should have bought the Android phone that came out at the time the N900 was released and seen how long that lasted.
Don't compare a device that came out a year ago with devices that came out last week!
