I'm also very interested in this gadget. Might get 1 to replace my existing Omnia II. My only concern now is there are temporary no full-established GPS guidance software such as GarminXT available in this platform.

If the price different is so huge(bout 1K), then there is no reason to get the original unit cause even half way thru. if the AP set failed, you can still change the faulty part with the extra 1K excess and still have some extra money left.

RM2999 is just too insane for this new and last gen. device. I will only seriously consider this unit if only it is less than 2K. Anything more i will go for Nexus or X10.

Actually, N900 is not classified as mobile phone but MID (thats why its web browsing offer a superior experience over others) with phone function attached. They are the same as Nokia previous tablet such as N700, N810 which never launched in our shore.

Nevertheless, its a very interesting gadget with no certainty due to its OS in used.

I'm still considering this or SE X10. Tough decision for me hmm.gif

Perhaps the though decision is because one of it you like the design and another you like the OS?

Because both phone looks way different and both have different OS.

Just see which weighs more to you, the looks/design of the phone, or the OS.

Personally, I find the X10 design very plain, if Android I'd prefer Milestone/Droid, so if you compare X10 and N900, the design is way different and makes the decision much easier.
For Sony, I prefer X2 but it's WinMo and the specs are soooo dissapointing... but I like the phone design a lot.

Actually, the screen size is one of my major concern. X10 4" screen is able to provide better browsing experience than N900(i read a lot, ebook especially), but N900's browser is better than X10 cause X10 OS is only Android 1.6 (hm...if only it is 2.0/2.1 then the choice would be much more easier).

I'm using Samsung I8000 now so reading and browsing on 3.5" screen is best describe as...below my expectation though it serves its purpose.

Phone function to me is only non-critical.
