Hey guys just want to let you know that I've decided that my next device will be Galaxy S2.

One thing that holding me back before is that S2 doesn't have HDMI output. But after a few digging and searching, I've found that it does support USB-HDMI output or so called MHL.

Which is very interesting feature So I'm all in to Galaxy S and saying good bye to Nokia forever with their Win7 phones.

Although, I will be holding on to my N900 until the day its brick on me. Love this device and the community behind it

You guys have done so much for this lonely orphan N900. N900 will always by my side and I still have so much use of it But I need a better camera phone 1080p that is and better hardware.

Yeah I hope to get the samsung Orion processor version
Not sure when it will be released.

N900 will always be my sidekick device. Can't live without the FM transmitter and other features on it lol.

i imagine we will see a faster exit rate now. good luck. sad to see such enthusiasts as you move away from the true linux form.

il never buy a nokia wp7 and am patiently waiting to see nokia burn. elops burning platform letter was very indicative of his nature - sensationalist attention seeker.

Android is usless. I just pre ordered an android phone just the verify how usless It really is. Used 1.6, 2.1 before and will jump to SE ARC.

Yeah I don't think we all really have a choice right now. It's either Android, iOS or Win7. iOS and Win7 are not my taste and it's doesn't really give me enough freedom. Android is the most open for the three horses. MeeGo still got along way, I'll be considering it in the future though Once I can see some solid improvement in supports and opportunity.

I'm not turning away from Linux just yet. I had lots of fun hacking and tethering my N900 (until my USB broke off) and I spent $120 just to get it repaired. So I have a long term relationship with it Android phone has more support from third party and yet it not too bad as I will root it and gain access

Love my N900 and still do very much. First time I hold it in my hand, I really carefully and patiently handle it with care and I still do even now. It's the first device that made me sleepless for 2months waiting for its to come out and delivered to my door after the insane delay from Amazon lol. It almost turned me into a carnivore, I am at peace when i'm with my N900

I would of wait for MeeGO but I don't think Intel is ready to mass produce it. When it does I'll sell the Samsung GS2 and get it

I'll be around here for very long time.
