Also remember powering on the device (at least for me) seems to hammer the battery (unless it's plugged into a charger, which is what I do when I want to power on/off for some reason)

Maybe it's a new feature....."Auto-Boot".

I did notice on the Nokia Booklet 3G the sim is hot swappable, requiring no reboot, is there something like that on the n900?

I think the slide-to-unlock on N900 is kind of pointless though.. the one on iPhone is located right under your thumb when you hold it in portrait mode. Thus when you want to turn it on, you make the gesture to click (the home button) and flick from left to right right above it... all in a single continuous gesture. I don't think this is the case on the landscape-oriented N900.

I still think it's annoying. =P But it beats having two press two buttons. Though something like Android's screen lock mechanism was interesting. It wasn't just slide to unlock but there were several dots and you could create a swipe pattern as a password.

Of course I may just be talking out of my backend here, but if you care that much about a 1 minute planned downtime, you can try hooking the device up to external power before you turn off the cell radio (without powering down the device) and swap the sim card.
