I'm for sure keeping mine, nothing wrong with it. So much better than my old phone. It looks like i'll have to keep my Itouch in the same bag for now but that's ok.
I too am in the keyboard camp,and now that I have one, I really like it.

I'll keep my n900 and probably buy the new device if there's some hardware/size improvements
(e.g. cpu >= 1GHz, autonomy really improved, ...)
BUT I for sure will keep the n900 as a replacement device and/or pocket computer.
At least it will be a collection phone ^^

No.
Because:
I expect Maemo 6 on my n900
I want my next Mameo device to use dual-core Arm A9 + more powerful OpenGL SGX core.

bah, if the N900 stays as it is now and a much better N90x turns up with a not alpha-beta Maemo6, you can have my N900 i would feel like ripping someone off to sell this as a good micro computer/phone.
What happens with N900 is what will steer my decisions later regarding Nokia.
I allways got Nokia for its top notch synch and bluetooth handeling. I had a E60 N70 both those lacked the option to make a shortcut to the "more apps folder" directly to the descktop, this is Maemo ... same story. Same goes for the Camera lens cover when you have the phone in your pocket, you push it open by accident and who want the phone to get active in their pocket? N70 and N900. Finally navigation, but no that was a bluff to. It dosen't matter for me what people i don't know on a community forum says about the age and Maemo is new. Nokia is the ONE who must speak with a straight spine. about what is going to happen with Maemo5 or if it is left in the hands of volunteers from now on.

i've never sold any of my old phones (or tablets) when i got a new one. usually the new device cannot do everything as good as the old one could, so it's good to have them both.

Nope. Won't be changing devices for at least 2 years.

Nope... Unless there are at least 5 news things that current N900 cannot do :>
But, it seems more and more evident that the N900 is purely a stop gap solution to keep the tech enthusiasts happy because of aging and limited N800/810. Neither the OS or the HW built quality is good enough for the mass market. Besides, apps written with Qt will probably be very easy to convert to Maemo 6. As far as I'm concerned, I have always purchased a new phone within a year in any case, and I don't think this will change anytime soon.
