I got one for the first time, and would like a few hints especially related to current software packages.
If you want 100% new you could try in some old shops of telephony franchise, than spanish Movistar, in 2015 i had bought a new one for 120 euros.
Another chance is buy in chinesse online market than aliexpress or ebay refurbished models.

But that is interesting... add that to the list of possible places. I just don't trust eBay unfortunately.

If anyone in the UK wants a cheap one for spares (or knows how to fix them), I've just put mine on eBay.

It seems that there are still quite a few forgotten N900 out there, "sleeping in desk draws".
The most popular classifieds site in Australia is "Gumtree" (?), which has a section where people offer stuff for free. Some nice things will show up on there & advertisers get messages within seconds of posting. I posted an ad; ~"wanted: N900 for cash" & got 3 responses within a day. One guy down the road just needs to find his & the 2 others are waiting for me to offer more cash.

I love it.
Gumtree.
The name and the function are perfect.
Throw money at it and see if it sticks.
I think it is an excellent concept for a trading site actually.
What a great way to find stuff...
