I love my N900 but my USB port broke months ago and I'm scared it can't be fixed. I also love this forum, but do you guys (and gals) think this should be my future?

Better solder Your USB to test points beneath battery, via thin cable.

Sorry, unless they make a new N900 based off of the OMAP 5 SOC, I do see me buying anything from Nokia.

Strange question, but the Galaxy Nexus is a good phone for sure. A bit plasticy but it's pure and clean Android and made by Samsung. I had the Nexus S. It received ICS half a year before anyone else, and that is nice.
I'm thinking about getting one myself. But the Wave III can run Tizen (according to rumors), maybe a Wave III, or a Lumia. There's a lot of ifs about those phones, but the Galaxy Nexus is solid.

I'm in a similar boat - trying to decide between the HTC One X and the Galaxy note..
One X wins on performance, but lacks USB OTG, the Note wins (and possibly loses, I can;t decide) on the size of the screen, and I kind like the stylus, although i've yet to see anything as good as myPaint on it...

Please a device with resistive screen. (pressure sensitive).

If I knew Note 2 was coming out at the same time as the SG3, I;d definitely wait. As it is, it seems like I;m going to have to choose form factor over specs, and be a bit gutted 6-9 months down the line if the Note 2 comes out...

It can be fixed, fix it and keep your N900.

I would strongly recommend getting Galaxy Nexus. I settled for it after long research, and I am very happy with my decision. As a matter of fact, I tried playing around with my good ol' N900, but it just did not feel the same as before; after making the switch, N900 just feels sluggish and unresponsive. Even though, I do miss the keyboard. A lot.
