Good day people,
I have decided to start working a little on the Wikipedia article for the Nokia N900 as a way : 1) to better know my future phone and 2) hopefully promote the device to others.
I would like for anyone with 5 minutes and a generous spirit to go to the N900 Wikipedia article and do some proof-reading, make suggestions and do improvements. Your help will be greatly appreciated. You can leave comments here or on Wikipedia.
If you feel I have left out important informations about the device please tell me so. If have have written something incorrect please put me back on track.
Thank you very much !
But resisted from doing the rest as I suck at that. Now the page looks pretty detailed. Will keep an eye on that! Thanks for your efforts.
Btw, why wouldn't Nokia update that page? Or better even, take ownership of that page?

@Mofarocker :
Once I have submitted an article on Wikipedia you are pretty much free to do whatever you want with it. As far as I know Wikipedia, it is a good idea to translate an article from english to another one. We may be able to share information in the future. Try looking up on the Wikipedia website for more information.
This maybe ?
@GeneralAntilles :
Thanks for your contribution but unfortunately it was reverted. Would you mind to elaborate on what you said. Do you mean there is no way to tell if it work or not with, say, a 32 GB microSD card because there is none available on the market right now ?

@ deadmalc :
The Orange UK is not my edit. Feel free to correct it. My guess is it will work on any network supporting the frequencies. I will have a look at that.

Here is the updated UK carrier section :
The Nokia N900 can be used on the Orange, T-Mobile and 3 (roaming on T-Mobile) networks which use the 1800 MHz frequency-band for GSM/GPRS/EDGE (2G) and on the O2 and Vodafone networks which use the 900 and 1800 MHz for 2G. All the previously listed providers and 3 use the 2100 MHz (WCMDA) frequency-band for 3G.[14] Virtual operators, such as Virgin Mobile, will connect on one of the network suppliers (T-Mobile or Vodafone) for network coverage.[15]
