i think the issue can easily be solved and my suggestion of rotating the arrows may not be the best option.
Have you started some Brainstorms about your suggestions where I can vote for?

I must confess, I really really wanted to get the N900, as I have an N810, but I can't be tied to T-Mobile or ATT or whatever. Nokia really needs to come out with a phone that's suitable for multiple carriers in the US if it's supposed to be a higher end phone. I'd say that's the biggest hindrance of them all, that it's T-Mobile only in the US.
T-Mobile will shave $10 a month off your bill in their no contract even more plus plan rewarding users for bringing an unlocked phone to their party. They may not have the best coverage but IMHO they have the best policy for an unlocked power user device like the N900.
On topic - great points mentioned by Timwatt, the two things I really miss are sending .ics from the calendar via email and opening .ics directly from a webpage in the calendar. Currently you have to download to device and then open from the file manager.

How did you get that Keyboard shortcut on contacts? I don't see that button when I open up my contacts.
And how come the keyboard is a tiny one... my on-screen keyboard takes up the entire screen! ughh
Thanks in advance!

For the hardware, N900 misses these:
- Larger battery, or at least separate battery door from lens cover so third parties could more easily provide bigger battery (like in N95)
- Digital compass (like in N97)
- USB-port, which is able to be in a host mode (like in N810)
- Separate arrow-keys also in Scandinavian version of keyboard.
- DVB-H (like in N96) (Not that important as the above ones.)

i guess my point is when i started using the device I couldn't tell which calls were in and which were out. I still get confused. (call me the lowest common denominator)
i think the issue can easily be solved and my suggestion of rotating the arrows may not be the best option.
thanks for the feedback
