I would certainly use it as a phone if it worked on AT&T's network decently and the price was right.

I'm also a 'price is right' other. I like it (albeit in a different way than a N810) but don't really have a budget for it if it's 500+ euros.

texrat, I'm a huge gadget whore, and chose Nseries flagships for the last 4-5 years because nothing matched its features.I'd switch new devices every 4 months because of my rampant gadget whoredom. If this phone puts the Nseries lead back at a massive disparity in comparison with the competition, which is what has put many Symbianites off, I'm in, and will by the other Maemo device when it comes out too.

I'm currently not working a 9-5 right now, but I promise you, I'll hustle, scratch and steal to get the N900. Its what the N90 showed me could be possible, and the closest to a truly convergent device I've seen. All it needs now are a PiiPtv client, and I'm satisfied for at least 8 months, maybe more.

These numbers must be considered quite good, when you take in account the number of disappointed vocal people in these threads.

@volt: Yep. I've played the devil's advocate (and apple fanboi) voice quite often in the thread, and even so, i voted "i'll buy one (no matter what)" cause I'm a gadgetwhore (gadgetjohn?) just like christexaport above :P

No. Price being the main reason. Satisfaction with the n810 is the other

I hope I'll get the chance to test drive it. My main concerns are battery life and synchronization with OS X. Let's see how they deal with that

+1 (text for too short message warning.)

I find myself unable to understand the reactions of Symbian fans to Maemo. I am a Symbian fan too, but in many places I have seen bile spewing like forest fires!

Really? Where?
