I don't mean to revive such an old thread but I'm also contemplating to buy Nokia N900 around my birthday this year (November 2011). I'm also a Linux user and a programmer (though I'm still starting out on the latter - started my first job just a few months ago).
Searching lots of advantages to this device is just astounding but most of my searches are outdated. As I compare the hardware to the to-be-released and newly released devices (especially those that have dual processors), it makes a bit of thinking if I should still buy this.
Looking at our local country's popular cellphone barter & selling site - the price range of a second hand N900 is around 180 US dollars to 200 US dollars more or less. Though it got me thinking why they are selling their device when the N900 pictures they posted, the device still looks almost new - but then again, I live in a more Windows OS country and I'm not sure if they don't dive into much of the geekery of the phone.
Hopefully, by the time my birthday comes - it gets cheaper and I might buy even two devices (one for development and another for everyday use).
Though I have a few questions that still keeps me pondering - is the hardware along with the features (mostly the screen being resistive touchscreen) worth it still with the newer devices in the market? Or is there other mobile computer like N900 that can compare that has native Linux OS in it mostly that has better hardware?
Edit: I know I have decided to buy this device but my mind still keeps asking this question as I google such things randomly :P
