my n900 still in good condition but missing the stylus. but i never used it. so its ok for me.. and why n900 still be my only phone just because i just want a stupid phone not a smartphones!

Still my main phone as well.
Nothing else i've tried can index 64gb+ of music without dragging to a halt for one, my n900 has taken quite the beating, and suprizingly is still in good shape (thanks to an otterbox/invisible shield screen protector), and the n900 is unique in its features, no other phone can touch it atm.
I'll prob be using my n900 for a couple more years, assuming it holds up (no doubt it will).
I'll retire it when i don't have a choice, or a better linux based phone with roughly the same features comes along, on better/more up to date hardware.
In the meantime, my n900 is and always will be my baby.
Best phone i've ever bought.

Just a quick thought I was interested in is to how many people on this
Forum actually still use n900 today as their main phone?
Since its release I've had and owned around 7 N900s sold one got iPhone sold iPhone back to n900 sold that got n9 sold that back to n900 you can get where I'm going with it.
I missed it so much I always had to go bak to it but when I had it I got more frustrated with little things as of now
I own two n900s ones dead from cssu devel and I have no USB port so it's gone. 2nd one I have is in mint well almost mint condition which I just bought few weeks ago. Started using it as main phone but it just sits on tv now and I'm using my iphone 4 (yes I know) and a galaxy s3 and android is super customisable but I'm honestly sick and tired of android I really am. Plus as I get older the thought of hacking and tweaking devices is just not as fun as it used to be hence why I'm using iPhone.
Anyway so the question was how many of you still to this day 3/4 years later still using the n900 and why?

Another one! N900 is my only phone (well except for the spare n900 I bought recently )
Odd, because I'm usually an early adopter... but all the quadcore hoopla doesn't appeal to me at all. I don't care about higher specs if they don't bring much additional capability.
Still nothing out there that tops the n900 for me:
-storage, can't beat 32 +up to 64 card
-FM radio and transmitter
-keyboard (n900 is my first phone with one, and I'm converted)
-resistive screen (I can have a 30x30cell spreadsheet on my screen and still reliably select a cell - try that with cap)
-awesome multitasking
-easy debian
-open-ish os not packed with spyware and great community

My usb broke so I "upgraded" to Galaxy Note. After a few months I bought a used n900 and now use it as my primary again. Just love the user experience - sure I miss some android apps but it cant beat the user experience of the N900.

All times are GMT. The time now is 22:03.
also the cost of a learning curve and cost of a new device keeps me from moving ot somewhere else. I might buy Ubuntu phone in the future, but I will probably still keep N900 around for travelling (unless they make something with resistive display, accesible batteries and hardware keyboard:-)).
