bb email really has no equal. I had instances when i owned a blackberry where my phone alerted me to an incoming email before my desktop email did. but n900 is really a totally different machine and theres really no comparrison.

Apps sucks? You mean the official apps on phone? IMO. Yes they are not what they should be on device that has ~550 price tag. Also Nokias inability to put up Nokia ovi store is just starting to look like joke. About apps here that are free are just wonderful.
and yes i know that n900 is open source but come on !

what is your work routine with N900. There is n+1 threads about how to improve battery life. The rule of thumb of course is to disable all the internet widgets from your desktops and IM-accounts. And use internet Only when you are using it. Idling in IM (skype,messenger,gtalk etv) and Facebook or other widget that uses packet data drains battery in ~5-6h.
im so disspointed

If you have friends that have blackberry then no device can ever come near because of BB IM. All my friends are on BB and my wife and all her friends are on BB. I am always so envious that she can chat with all her friends all day long.
Seems like such a missed opportunity for me from Nokia. Guess what phone all my friends, my wife and my wives friends all had before they got blackberry? A Nokia at one point or the other. But they all moved to BB because of the IM. Why couldn't Nokia have implemented a free IM service in all their device? Now people are leaving them to go to blackberry.

This Maemo.org is just free/open source place where people like to hang out and test how to make apps to N900.

But idling in msn with pecan makes my battery last for at least ~24h (this depens of course on which online connection you are using 2g/3g/wlan). I think we have here topics where people have sent their pictures of battery-eye.

For example this post is quite nice:

But then again you can see from that post that poster says msn pecan is power sucker.

both rocks, the bb for the true push to mail and the policy handling and controlling and tracking with a BES
and the N900 for its xterm, vpn, streaming, fb, twit and so on
so i would not compare the 2 phones as they are for 2 different markets
