Yeah, there are still plenty of unserved regions here in Ohio; in fact, my parents live in one of them, so I've learned to get my maps downloaded before I head that way (if I'm going to use maps at all).

N900 is definitely better for IMing and texting to multiple people concurrently. But otherwise it can't compete with iPhone 4S. The 4s is just a more complete device all around. N900 is too slow, doesn't do corporate email, bulky, iPhones virtual keyboard beats hardware one on N900, and n900 virtual keyboard is a joke. I like the computer feel of N900 but I can't open excel or word or PowerPoint presentations. The maps are way too slow on n900, and other than the stock, the map alternatives are eyesores. Overall, iPhone 4S is a clear winner, and I think that 4S is even better than 5, as I prefer a thicker and heavier device and design in 4s is unbeatable

You bought it and it expired? Or your trial expired and you didn't bother to spent a couple of euros? Anyway, docs to go .deb is available if you ask google, I know that because after dataviz told me that my OS is no longer supported so they don't want my money, I found it uploaded to a couple of file sharing servers.

I find gnumeric far superior to any other mobile spreadsheet application. Abiword is good too. You can also use FreOffice, or easy debian LibreOffice.

The only thing I can now ask for is better integration, i.e. modest to open attachments directly in abiword and gnumeric instead of having to save and then go and open them. (This works with FreOffice btw). I tried specifying mime types in the desktop file but without success.

That is not surprising, since gnumeric is NOT a mobile spreadsheet application... It's a desktop application.

That's why I like maemo better than most other mobile OS's. Because when I edit spreadsheets or do similar tasks I prefer desktop grade applications than restricted mobile ones, and I don't mind using the stylus at all.
