The N900 is too big and heavy for my liking. Unless you're a trendy business user or a Linux fan, I don't think N900 is a good buy.
Many older Symbian phones can do most of non-GUI functionality that N900 does.
The N900 touchscreen also not as nice as iPhone/HTC phones.

For me the best Nokia phone is still N82. It's an old phone, but still ranks top 5 at gsmarena.

You should try it yourself before judging it so fast. Its big for a reason

To me N900 is a good buy for what is capable to perform. If u put N79 and N900 together and use then u will see the difference.

Here some stuff what the phone can do

Plenty. N900 runs on linux so if u have knowledge in linux u can tweak this tweak tat all it need is the command or installer. Its still in development they even OC their phone from 600mz to 1200mhz ( at your own risk) Try drop by a nokia store near you and try it.

1) Amazing graphics quite close to iphone
2) Amazing browser with flash supported no need 3rd party and no annoying lag
3) Amazing 5MP camera
4) Tons of application available to download from
5) Integration of Msn, Google talk, YM , QQ, etc etc without 3rd party but only plugin
6) Support additional decoder like RMVB,FLAC by installing decoder without 3rd party software
6) The screen is nHD.
7) 3.5 inch screen and visible under sunlight when 5800XM do not.
8) High virtual memory
9) Email integration no hassle just put your email address n password it will retrieve your setting from nokia server
10) Can play heavy flash files without lag
11) JHave Xterminal http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_terminal
12) Sms are sorted in conversation type.
13) Design to multi task without lag.
14) Able to sign in all your online messenger 1 click.
15) qwerty keyboard
16) ARM Cortex A8 600 MHz, PowerVR SGX530 graphics ( Its like a pc with external graphic card better or internal)

and many many more

Softwares can be found @
a) Ovi stores
b) Maemo.org
c) and 3rd party website

It took about 1 year plus for 5800 or other nokia phone to get custom firmware imagine if n900 have 1 year with something so powerful imagine how far it can go.

My comments in blue.

As I mentioned in the N900 thread before, I already tried it and I wasn't very impressed.

Plenty. N900 runs on linux so if u have knowledge in linux u can tweak this tweak tat all it need is the command or installer. Its still in development they even OC their phone from 600mz to 1200mhz ( at your own risk) Try drop by a nokia store near you and try it.
I already have a notebook with Ubuntu in it. I don't really care what my phone runs on, since I intend to use it mainly as a phone, not a development machine.

1) Amazing graphics quite close to iphone
The graphics and touch screen are not amazing. If you want really amazing, try any phone with HTC's Sense UI.
2) Amazing browser with flash supported no need 3rd party and no annoying lag
Many other Nokia, SE and HTC phones already do this since 2007.
3) Amazing 5MP camera
5MP cameras are everywhere. And unless it has Xenon flash, I wouldn't call it amazing.
4) Tons of application available to download from
Tons? Nothing compared to iPhone App Store and Android Market.
5) Integration of Msn, Google talk, YM , QQ, etc etc without 3rd party but only plugin
Same as HTC/iPhone.
6) Support additional decoder like RMVB,FLAC by installing decoder without 3rd party software
No comment, but many phones do RMVB out of the box.
6) The screen is nHD.
No comment.
7) 3.5 inch screen and visible under sunlight when 5800XM do not.
5800 has a lousy resistive touchscreen anyway.
8) High virtual memory
Okay..
9) Email integration no hassle just put your email address n password it will retrieve your setting from nokia server
E72, BlackBerry, HTC all can do this..
10) Can play heavy flash files without lag
Same as point 2.
11) JHave Xterminal http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_terminal
No comment..
12) Sms are sorted in conversation type.
HTC phones do this too.
13) Design to multi task without lag.
So many phones multi-task, except iPhone.
14) Able to sign in all your online messenger 1 click.
That's nice
15) qwerty keyboard
E72, MILESTONE, etc all have this. Nothing special..
16) ARM Cortex A8 600 MHz, PowerVR SGX530 graphics ( Its like a pc with external graphic card better or internal)
Nexus One has 1GHz Snapdragon.

Yes, add all of the above features and the N900 sounds great. I admit it has potential, but other phones can do most of the things it does, and they weigh less and cost less too.

back to the topic mate.this is N79 thread.cheers!

Ok my point is to share but do u realize your point u highlighted is from different brands and models? My point here is to show N900 is the combination of all this and its potential. Lastly its a Nokia
Back to topic People even successfully run Android on N900

Dont tell me to have all this features u need have 10 phones in your pocket?

well N900 and Maemo still new..

I still remember when N85 VS N86 VS N96 hahaha

N85vsN86vsN96??lol.N86 sure kills without any doubt.no need to compare at all.

n86 camera sudah KO n96 and n85

Funny you should say that. In my supposedly easy-to-set-up-email E52, it is impossible for me to get the phone to accept my password containing symbols like *&^$^#$. It was only after I used plain vanilla character like ABC and 123 that I was able to.

5800xm is a touchscreen so i won't buy it...
before this,i am quite skeptical bout e series...i thought i was only for executives or business people the specifications quite good & its battery life is better than n85...
now i hav to choose between e72,n85 & n79.....need some time to think bout this....
neway,do u guys know the price for these models now?

for business class go for E72

1) Amazing battery life
2) Better processor better speed.
3) Design for business

wat if i am more into entertainment,which is da nice choice? n79,n85 or e72?

E72 !!!

well.. i am n85 user..haha..
but i suggest go for E72 if u want qwerty keyboard.. as the other only has alphanumerical keybord only..haha not a keyboard though..

the price
E72 - RM1000++ for AP and RM 1.2k++ for ORI
N85 - RM 950++ for AP and RM 1.1k++ for ORI
N79 - RM 900++ for AP and RM 1k+ for ORI

both of u r professional in this mobile phone world. i'll leave to the readers to determine themselves

some people says, the built quality for E72 is not as nice E71? is it true? for me, i would not choose slider phone. hard for me to slide inside the pocket. plus, N85 is a 2-way slider. a big NO for me! hehe. b4 buying N79, i also considering to buy N82. but, at the end go for N79 bcoz it is newer

I found a website which you guys can download very nice themes. maybe it kinda old for some of u, but i like it very much. go HERE

i changed my front casing at NCC bkt bintang...
costed me rm60 (without the keypad)...

quite cheap. is it including labor cost? yours still under warranty?
