I was kind of interested in the Droid/Milestone 2, but there isn't much improvements in terms of hardware over the Droid/Milestone 1. It's the closest thing to N900 design. Sadly, there isn't much good spec qwerty Android device around; For HTC/Samsung, the high end models doesn't have qwerty.
Can't stand using phones without qwerty keyboard, ESPECIALLY if it's capacitive touch screen, even on a 4" screen. With the N900, I've been online in MSN through N900, chatting with long message for sometime about phones, he was in total shock to know I have been typing all the messages through the N900.
Some people I know that SMS A LOT, I mean A LOT, I warned them about using touch screen devices without qwerty keyboard, they don't believe me or maybe they're too obsessed with the phone/brand, like a Fashion, must have. Ended up suffering typing even simple SMS.
ANYWAY, before LG/Samsung announces the dual-core devices, Motorola already hinted about it even before the Droid 2 as launch; I though the Droid 2 would have dual-core, but sadly no; Let's hope there will be good spec device with nice design + nice qwerty keyboard for Android. Droid/Milestone 3 perhaps? 
Absolutely! If only they come up with a better device for Maemo; Even with current specs, it's already so good, but limited by it's hardware; As for the software part, that would need full source code release and those hardcore supporters/team to polish it. Such good and unique OS, being abandon just like that, yet it still survives and got many developers which keeps adding functionality to it. It lives because of those supporters.

Going WP7 is a BIG nono, but what to do, it's the NEW CEO.
Previously, when Maemo is being dropped for MeeGo, there're people who were supporting/requesting/hoping/etc that Nokia to adapt Android. They could add Android into their line of devices and still continues to develop MeeGo. I think that could probably save Nokia like a lot? If they did, they might also drop the idea of Symbian^3 OR take more time to completely rebuild Symbian OS "properly"; Plus, they could've also adopt their Qt into Android.
Now, don't know what the future holds.

do N900 have CPU profile? like it will downclock when there are no cpu usage to save batt life..?

Shud i save money from now to buy an adroid device??
or jump to fruitphone?huhu

Now it's up to u GrandMaster to completing the Meego project on N900..huhu
Man..i want meego really badly..

Hey guys, i recently encountered a problem with my N900's LCD screen - the screen is blank but i can still feel feedback when i press the screen.

Out of curiosity, i decided to disassemble my N900 unit to check if the LCD ribbon was loose. Apparently after securely placing it back and switching on my N900 again, i experienced the same problem - a blank screen.

Has anyone here repaired/replaced their N900's LCD screen before?

If so, how much does it cost? Mine is an original AVAXX unit but the warranty's expired so no luck for me to get it done free.

Guys interested for a gathering.

You will also learn the difference between a camera phone / DSLR / Digital camera

Not really, N900 is very very picky with type of headphone with mic, and there is a trick to plug in as well, not sure about the others, but mine cannot direct plug in, need to twist it in slowly halfway, check got any signal and finish push in, if not, pull it out and slowly plug and twist in again.

However those type with headphone only will not have problem by direct plug in, it can detect very fast.

Bluetooth seems to be the best solution for N900, but I heard some type of bluetooth model having problem detected by phone.

hi all again...since im new to these maemo fiasco thingy... i guess i will be asking alot of nooby question... please dont fire me k.

anyway, today everything works fine... except for 1 thing.... i dont here a sound from my wired handsfree....

tried using media player, the sound comes out from the fon speaker. tried calling in and out also the same.

using bluetooth handsfree to my car HU, it was fine.

does that a sign that maybe the fon jack is faulty? if so, how much to repair??? i like to use it to listen to music while doing my work... so i guess its pretty much important to me.

so other than ahem version, no more free office program? heard of k-office? try to do some research on that one first, not sure can work or not

Just try play with programs in extras but careful what you install in extra-test and extra-develop, especially far the last one, it might brick your phone.

oh one thing with the enhance kernal you find on extras, don't install it before you more adapt with N900 

ppl that sell doesnt know how to play with the phone.... i mean internet device... hehe..

“Yes, a Jedi's strength flows from the Force. But beware of the dark side. Anger, fear, aggression; the dark side of the Force are they. Easily they flow, quick to join you in a fight. If once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny, consume you it will, as it did Obi-Wan's apprentice.” quote by master Yoda

Sooner or later you have to hand on Enhance kernel, there are many fun things with it, from overclocking to HEN and not to mention Nitroid

99% just re-flash your phone will reset it back to factory default....unless you run some sinister program which cause permanent damage to the hardware  (such as overclock too high burn out the CPU)
