If you change the settings the save sms to the flash drive (like in the s60 phones) then you basically have unlimited memory, BUT obviously this is gonna slow down the phone. On all my previous s60 phones, the phone started to take 3-5 seconds to open an sms message (I had about 2000) but since the N900 has a better processor it shouldn't be much of a problem but that doesnt mean it wont happen. It would probably take a lot more than 2,000 but sooner or later it will slow down. If you really want to save them, just make a new backup when you get to about 5,000, then you'll always have them saved

Didn't you read the post about sqlite on the last page? In that message it was said that with sqlite-database, even millions of messages shoudn't bring the performance down significantly. I'm pretty sure that you really can't compare S60 machines with this.

I'm not lazy at all, I've been doing extensive research on the phone and I ran a search regarding the texting. I saw a maemo app describing it's feature as having conversational style text and i figured this was because maemo didn't already offer it. I saw numerous screen shots and from what I saw it didn't look conversational either, so I was confirming.

i actually didn't know about the maemo.nokia.com

iPhone did have a limit, believe it might've been 1,000-2,000? I just remember a friend having to clear the conversation due to that. I personally, when I had AT&T's iPhone did too have to clear the conversations once.

I'm just hoping the N900 can hold onto texts long and won't slow the device down. Also in the event of a failure of some sort that the text stay the same or are restored properly.

Sorry if I'm dragging up an old topic but I have now encountered an 'Unable to receive or send new messages. Device storage full. Remove data to free memory' how do you resolve this? I have about 300 messages on the phone which is nowhere near the 3000+ that is on my N95, I also have 17gb of storage free. So what storage is it on about? Any help on this would be appreciated.
