DO NOT get an N900!

You can have mine for a fiver. It's utter

Ok calmed down now. It could have been a tulip hot phone and the theory of it could make it a real winner. Problem is it isn't. There are not enough of them about so apps support is utter rubbish and most seem to be highly techie rather than fun. Keyboard is the dogs danglies, dunno how I am going to cope without it but the rest of the phone is a waste of time. Regret getting mine.

Exactly my thought regarding my N97. I really liked my N95 8gb and the specs for the 97 were pretty good. Just Nokia completely screwed it up. As I said earlier, the last Nokia I will ever own.

Looking for a new phone soon as well. Had an iPhone 3 and loved it. One of the big things for me was that once Jailbroken you could do almost anything you wanted with it. It became a handheld computer not just a phone with some fancy gadgets. I'm talking about things like remote terminal access to and from my Mac, seamless file sharing over wireless, running network tools and other techy bits and pieces.

Do the HTC and Samsung offerings have the same capability?

think you can vpn into your pc network on the Samsung if that's your thing....

I concur. I smashed mine into hundreds of tiny pieces in frustration. I am now back to using the N95 which is a far better device.
