asidana doesn't say, but the article s/he links to is an unsophisticated user's subjective comparison of smartphones (with the N900 ending up #1).

Perhaps the N900 isnt such a "Geek Phone" after all.

Yeah.. interesting read. Hardware keyboards are a must 
.
Although you could have added a little more to your post. We get too many "good read" titles with single links in them and no description or information.
I was legitimately surprised at the ending.. I was sure the iPhone had won. I notice they were more focused on banking than anything else.. and multi-tasking was never mentioned... also - maybe I missed it - but was the stylus he was using a capacitive-friendly stylus? The iPhone normally doesn't work with a stylus - need special ones for that.

I was surprised with the end result too, but after 3 weeks with n900 i kind a understand why "B" picked n900.
UI is a lot simpler and easy to use when you compare with others. I am not professional or something, just a geek and I believe if Nokia removes access to deep in to system, many of "normal users" would like it too.
Don't get me wrong i am not against openness but allowing people to access to xterminal is asking for trouble.

Making a comment like that around here is asking for trouble!
