Hi peeps, i usualy only read here (not knowing enough to comment on most things lol).But i feel more than qualified to speak on this thread.I went for an N97 having used symbian phones for some time and i have to say i was dissapointed in a massive way.It lacked speed in a big way and was very unstable during use and to be honest the signal strength for browsing was terrible (same carrier now with N900 and much better).All in all i found it not upto the job i wanted which is way less than you guys expect.I gave it upto 3 FW updtaes which was heading in the right direction but still just did not hit the mark.Apps or not the 900 just blows it out of the water.To put it simply N97 was a good PHONE but most other stuff sucked and th N900 is good at allmost everything with a phone app that could be better.Only my opinion but its nice to be able to comment on something without feeling like a total noob lol.
