Sorry I'm just being cynical, but just predictions stating 30th October - that is what is seeming to me the most likely. I hope it's sooner of course :-D

NO, I need it now! Like really, really need it, if the HTC HD2 comes out before the N900 I might just cave and get that instead, that is why I need the N900 NOW!

On another note, how are people getting avatars and signatures on their profiles?

Click on your name in the top right hand corner of the page. It should take you to your settings. That's how I put in a signature, but can't be bothered with avatars yet.

So apparently this is more about having a flashy toy than about having the best device. Well i can only encourage you to get the HD2. Good luck with that windows mobile 6.5 hotness.

I considered buying a different phone. Several different phones, to be exact. I studied and explored each one fully, even to the point of trying out similar hardware just to get a 'feel'. I came very, very close to ordering the HTC HD2. It may be windows mobile, but it has a lot going for it out of the box in terms of history and apps that maemo doesn't. I the end, I rejected it on the grounds I disliked the hardware and it lacked the potential of the n900.

By all means question someone's reasons for wanting a particular phone (and which comes out sooner seems a rather silly reason to me) but don't knock people who've researched the market for having considered the alternatives. That's just common sense. Isn't it?

Umm, not flashy toy, a phone that is more powerful than anything that will be on the market including the N900, and by the way check out these vid's and you'll eat your words on the WinMob 6.5 because HTC has pretty much gutted the OS.

Win 7 Mobile should be better. But HTC gutting the OS to me was more like them putting a fresh layer of paint over the entire OS. What happens when you reach a part that they haven't painted over?

HD 2 hasn't even come out yet, and I'm going by specs alone, the facts are clear it's the first phone to have the Snapdragon processor built in, so a full 1GHZ not to mention ram, screen size and a totally overhauled interface . Oh and thanks for your comment about researching alternatives, it's funny to see people snap as soon as you say you're considering an alternative...very immature.
