Greeting all, I just got back to the Nokia Linux path so found this site and joined up.

I bought a number of devices either because they were cheap or novel but just listing the ones I used for a while or tried hard to like.

Radio Shack PC-2 (Sharp PC-1500) for many years.
TRS-80 model 100
back to the PC-2
HP-95LX
HP-100LX
HP-200LX
IBM Thinkpad 110
back to the 200LX
N770
back to the 200LX
HP 320
back to the 200LX
HP Jornada 620
back to the 200LX

Last weekend I bought a large box full of Nokia goodness: 900,800,770, etc. in the hopes that the 900 will FINALLY replace my aging fleet of HPLXs. It's a fun toy but it's unlikely to be a full replacement. The keyboard, calculator, and such on the HP are just too good. I am hoping to at least use a N800 or N900 for some browser stuff and perhaps I can get IR working so I can use my HP as a terminal.

When I sold my 770, I fully intended to buy an 810 but it just never happened.

I'm actually surprised to not see more LX-ers here.

Yeeeey! They we waaaay over my budget when they were hot but I treated myself to one about three months ago. It is a beautiful device.

Sorry, mate, the IR on the N900 is TX only No idea about the N800. Does it have an IR?

One right here! 1 x HP-LX90, 1 x HP-LX200. I prefer the 90LX myself.

My device timeline: All Google-Apple-Microsoft-free

- some monochrome Siemens bonephone (I loved to play minesweeper on it)
- some LG clamshell phone
- Sony Ericsson K750i (Oh, this was a rocker in school... )
- LG KU990i (still a beautiful device, despite the resistive touchscreen...)
- Samsung Wave II (a really nice device! bada OS was neat.)
- Nokia N9 - the queen! Using it for one year now. There were hard times but I'd never regret my choice. This phone is just the best. Hardware and Software. Update: I dropped it sprinting against furniture ... the screen broke - nearly invisibly - but it did... I decided to buy a...
- Jolla phone (Update: finally got it after over a month of waiting. Loving it )

Well... yes Or "in spite of" if you'd prefer that. I just wanted to say that the resitive touchscreen is "worn out" after some years. Is that incorrect English?

Nothing against your English. It is your dislike of resistive screens that I find questionable

Ah okay. Well, the one and only resistive touchscreen I ever used extensively was the LG KU990i's... Quality decreased heavily over time there.
I have never experienced the N900's resistive touchscreen though. Is probably better
