Are you sure?
Forgot using Ovi Maps as navegator.
Forgot hand-writing input.
Forgot games, and lots of apps (yes, here they will say you crappy apps, you know)
Forgot portrait when you newer could think here is only landscape.
There are better options. Are you linux-guru-skilled-enough for this mess? PR 1.3 arrived, and only bugfixed since original PR, and no enhances coming.
Is your money.

N900 is a phone for tweakers really. You can adjust the phone OS to your likings, but there are ofcourse a great deal of things you'd expect from the N900, but actually aren't there.
RolePlayGame already mentioned a few.
If you like to hack settings or develop software for the N900 than that's the phone to go for. If you like WOW-factor, 1-hand control or ease of use then I'd suggest you take a look at other phones.

I have 5800, need to sell it and move on to n900.
What to expect and what apps to get first?

i like the customizations and all that. I'm not a developer or linux guru, but i'd like to learn more about it.
I'm used to not having many apps. In 5800 there are TONS of bad ones. so few games are ok.
I usually use my phone for texting , some video. ill get used to the phone Even with functions lacking. And n900 is only 320$ from amazon warehouse, its cheaper than other phones because i don't want to spend more money.
I'd love the n8 but 550$? naaah......too much for me. Thanks

The 5800 is still getting updates, the N900 is not.
And the community apps from here are being updated all the time...

It can't be compared with the updates on the 5800. Pr1.3 was only bug fixes, nothing new. Community apps here rarely (read: never) gets updates after being pushed to extras.But there is Nitdroid with tons of apps, some of then even works on the N900.
