Fine. Enough with the "fluff" posts. I'll have to start getting this thread back on topic myself.

*WIll the N900 make people like me?

*Will using the N900 in public make people think I am a deity walking among the plebeian dirty masses?

*Does it support MMS?

*Does it have WIndows ME preloaded or do I need to flash the firmware to WIndows 95 OSR2 first?

*Can I run S60 applications?

*Will the N900 make me look fat?

*Has it secretly shipped but the Illuminati are suppressing the distribution?

*Has Alan Sugar been secretly controlling our brains through telepathy since the release of the Amstrad CPC? I heard that Amstrad Locomotive Basic compiled backwards would cause the Amstrad CPC 664 to become sentient, force a memory dump of the user's brain which would then be transmitted telepathically to the aforementioned gentleman. Oh, the N900 has an 'N' in the name like the name Alan. So it is on topic.

*I heard that the TV series "The X-Files" was based on the real investigations Nokia's R&D did to develop the N900. Is that true?

*WIll it run Doom?

*Will it run Quake?

*Will it run Asteroids?

*I heard that Maemo is not based on Linux but on a super secret CP/M derivative that was built by time-travellers in the future and secretly squirelled away in a vault in a cave in the middle of Mongolia until one of the maemo.org moderators discovered it. Is that true?

*We passed the 1000 posts yet it has not been shipped yet. Do we have to wait for 1000 decimal or hexadecimal? Unless it is octal, in which case it is passed. But I don't like octal; it is decidedly an unsexy numerical system so I don't care.

No

Hopefully that answers your questions in great detail

Thanks, Skalogre, I was falling asleep here at work! Your post woke me up!

Blast it. I forgot I must have an animal image in my post in order to stay on topic and within the spirit of the thread. Right, here we go:

I doubt using a FLASH speed test is optimal as the N900 will still be CPU bound.

Dear reader,

to be honest, you might be surprised to hear that almost all postings in this thread were written by my fellow employees here at Nokia.
It has been so much fun to fool you *LOL* but after 1000 posts we're getting tired and would rather start our annual Quake tournament
on our shiny new N900s.

LayZ - Supply Chain Management, Nokia HQ

PS: Damn, my boss has been asking me about signing that N900 final release paperwork for several weeks... but the first prize for that tournament is 1 month of paid vacation. So, wish me good luck!
