Love and hate go together. Everybody loves the device for customisability - and hates for brickability. Loves for fast processor, multi-tasking - hates for short battery life. Loves for fitting your pocket - hates for small screen. Loves for durability of the device - hates for fading support from Nokia.

The end-line: many users of N900 will not throw it out of the window even if you offer them iPhone/iPad/Android phone. They might switch to another phone, but they will hardly throw the beloved N900 away. Somebody might throw it out of the window when it makes him really frustrated - and I suppose he will miss it later.

Why I absolutely love my Nokia N900:
It's my first Linux, and my first chance to get Minix (though Minix isn't ported to ARM yet; but my PC-server cannot risk installing Minix, especially when Firefox isn't ported to Minix yet).
It's my camera, GPS, toy, book reader, book scanner, flash-light, experimenting platform. Universal device. If there was Wi-Fi, N900 would become even more so.

I love my N900 although it pisses me all the time.
The freaking email client after PR1.2 doesn't fetch email automatically every hour. I reflashed including emmc my phone 3 times just for that. The only way is to hit send and receive 5x.

I LOVE MY N900, loved it from the start, I love it now and in the future when I will inevitably change to another phone I will remember it for the great moments It gave me.

Nokia released this mobile for the community and the community did and are doing a lovely job in releasing all the cool apps and enhancing programs that are and will be available for it!

When I bought it, I bought it for the following:

Phoning: It's good. Can phone normal or skype no need for more)
Messaging / emails: Can't be more happy! it's amazing! Nothing like having a phyisical qwerty Keyboard)
browsing: It's good fast and smooth, sure we need flash 10 now but it's ok)
Music: Absolutely stunning. you can even use it with your car FM radio!!!)
Photos: Happy, main cam is good. The future is bright with Fcam!)
Films: I just can't be more happy then I am on this. SIB is the best IMO)
emulators: Geez, we are full! SNES, NES, GBA, PSX, N64..etc..)
Games: Few, but what we have are some of the best)
TV OUT: That's one of the coolest parts! It's my personal DVD player!)
Overclocking: Get your phone to speed with it's competitors!)
OS: Maemo is good and has all you need. If you do not like, meego? ANDROID?!

IMO, the only thing that we really NEED now is Flash 10.
I hope you get banned, you can blind yourself and say ow its fine its ok its ok........I am not a negative person but rather a realist let's face a fact

Adobe implemented flash 10 to n900 months from now and gave it to nokia.Nokia needs to update this with its flash and still there is about zero hassle doing this

I dont know if nokia messaging is available for your location... but it is a massive improvement over the default e-mail client. The e-mail is instantaneous.

Yes, being positive is a crime at TMO. Everybody knows that... Definitely a good reason to ban people...

That's not exactly how it works in the _real_ world... Companies don't just *give* other companies their work for free. It was a *beta*. Who knows what kind of problems there might have been with it?
