good list. I like it, Thing is, I feel anything other than no.1 and no.2 on the list would be a downgrade in terms of hardware from n900. And those 2 phones might not even come to Europe If you are gonna get something new you want some up to date specs.(dual core, big ram and a graphics gpu along with the usual bells and whistles. An 8mp camera would be nice too. Anything less and you risk not being able to run the latest software in a year. Happened to my wife who got the HTC magic. nothing new worked after about 7 months, so you gotta get something likely to last)
I hope those 2 do come to Europe cos I would probably get one.
