Not only do I get a good nights sleep by not listening to my PC fans whirring away. It also does wonders for my Electricity bill by seeding on my phone rather than an 800w PC. I was never truly comfortable leaving my PC on overnight either in case it went on fire.
So yeah, the N900 and Transmission 1.76 has been my solution to these problems. Brilliant.
Are you storing the files themselves on the N900, or do you have a network hard drive?
EDIT:
My wow-moment would be the first time I remotely accessed my home desktop PC with the N900, SSH-tunneled VNC over mobile broadband, in a forest.
