Galaxy note is the way to go. The size is no problem and screen gives you an excellent web experience. Or wait until the note II arrives.

Hold your money for now, wait for the next generation of Android phones running quad-core OMAP 4xxxs, Tegra 3s and Exynos.
If you are, however, willing to deal with the incredibly slow web browser on the N900 in exchange for non-vnc slow chroot performance, get a N900.

There's only a few choices:
-N900 (linux in your pocket, cheap but very outdated)
-N950 (linux in your pocket, somewhat outdated, impossible to get)
-iPhone (4 / 4S = best ecosystem out there, no customizability)
-Android qwerty (Captivate Glide, EPIC 4G, Milestone 4, Droid OG)
-Android high-end (Gnex, SGSII, Atrix etc)
-Android XL (NOTE, LG 4X HD)
Otherwise you have niche such as SGTab (7in makes calls), Wave-Bada, HTC HD2, WP7.5
I wouldn't really go far to recommend HPalm, Symbian or RIM as smartphones.

But let's be honest. You want the N9 because it's different, it has terminal, you like to tinker a bit, you like USB mass storage and you more than likely will regret going to WP7 because it will box you into that ecosystem.
Get the N9. Don't body swap this one

Tough one. Right now I want that $200 Asus/Google pad when it materializes. Then i have $400 to go. My N9 works remarkably well as my everyday phone, but the camera is poor, and no shutter button sucks more and more. Thought I would get used to it, but no. So the only solution:
Google/Asus tablet $200
Nokia 808 PV $400
Sum $600
