I will be signing up on a 2 year plan. As with all phones, in about 6 months, the phone will be outdated, as with all android phones, iphones and everything. I must stick with the plan until it's over, and I get 1gb of data each month, so that's nice. I want to know I am making the right decision.

My understanding of the phone is that Nokia will not be supporting an official Meego release. I am confident the community will support one, and NITDroid is a very smooth project, but I won't be installing it, or using it until I can make a phone call. :|
Overall, I think I really want this phone. Even if the community dies in a year or so, I will be fine. Just one question about Evernote, as it keeps all my notes, stuff to read on the train, homework, study and practically everything, I need to know, is there a client for it? Or is it just some photo sharing program? Will I be able to read my notes on the phone?

Thanks

As for Evernote, no client, very disappointing, you access your notes via the web, not even close to PC, iPhone or Android experience. I sold my N900 and have never looked back and am extremely happy with my new phone (not Nokia) knowing that I am in good company and will have good long term support on my new unit . Good luck.

It goes without saying and I speak for myself, I will never buy another Nokia product in the foreseeable future unless they convince me that they are serious about developing a smart phone that they can commit to and go the distance against the competition. Until then.... hello competition
