for ur 1st Q, if i not mistaken next firwmare gonna enable blutooth support. Even if not u still can use 3rd party apps, petrovish.
For 2nd, yes the OVI map use by N900 is ver 1. Required internet connection for GOS locate ur location. But yet, it still kinda helpful for me as long as some1 sit beside me n be my navigator XP..
3rd Q, no MMS at d moment (might update through firmware) but u can alwiz use 3rd party apps, FMMS.
and 5th Q, N900 doesnt come with PC suite CD in the package, but who know is supportable in future.
6th, yes not multitouch. Is tat reli main issue?
7th if u can copy paste from web, y not in email? N900 support copy n paste
8th when u click delete sms, u can mark and delete it

hope i answer ur Q n correct me if i m wrong

One thing people need to start to understand and differentiate.

If it is SOFTWARE limitation, don't worry, it can be fixed (either by Nokia or 3rd Party).
If it is HARDWARE limitation, then it is a real problem.

Most above is software limitation. When getting computer/laptop/smartphone, one should know that software limitation is small issues.

As for Multi-Touch, you're talking about Capacitive. Firstly, one also need to understand the difference betwen Capacitive and Resistive technology and also the advantages and disadvantages of both.
You want precision touch, ability to use your finger nails/stylus, you need Resistive touch. Resistive touch gives you precision and accuracy, you can touch small links in a webpage, you can play games which requires accuracy/precision touch (no need to special customize the game for your device). Example: Room Escape Flash Games.
With Resistive Touch technology and ability to use the stylus, you get to use Sketch/Drawing application, where you can draw using very FINE pencil and create stunning art/drawing.
Many people just want the latest or what is popular, they never bother to know what is it.

The phone is very usable even for normal users, but will be more utilize for more advance users. As for learning curves, think positive. As you use, you will learn more and gain more technical knowledge. So, it's a win-win situation. The more things to learn, is better; as you use, you'll gain more knowledge and become more advance.

I try not to but people must be fair its like everyone buying the most perfect phone in the world they only list the flaw but not pros.
To be fair one self must weight the pros and cons. If you only focus on oneself weakness sure become bad.

New owner reporting in....i'm enjoying the phone!! full web support, can do online banking without limitation... being waiting for a nokia phone which can also support e-payment ticketing in GSC. no regret for spending 'much' money on it.

thanks for all the explaination. currently using S60V5, been waiting for more improvement. but....

software limitation i understand, thats why i looking some answer from u all about the 3rd party. as im thinking to use android OR n900.

since many things had been fixed with 3rd party.. i might consider more on it. coz i need a normal phone features, but with a fully compatible browser which juz like my laptop

i just got my n900 yesterday...
the initial apps repo is way to little apps..
after playing with it for a while.. and adding additional repo.. it looks great now...

now i can use linux anywhere.. nice...
time to port programs from sourceforge..

They are not fixed its just not announce yet.

I just bought this phone yesterday just add me for member n900 too ..

Add me too.

Nokia N900 Might Do Android OS / Maemo Dual Boot, GREAT?

well, N900 got normal phone feature..ok at least basic..except dun have MMS (can use fmms), assign ringing tone for difference contact (if this is ur concern as well), cant send file via bluetooth (but can use petrovich apps). for web browser, N900 definitely the best ..i can even view my own blog which using flash header

hmm.. mind if u list out some common cons of iphone? this not comparing, i just wan to know for extra knowledge =)
