3. FM Transmitter, it's a great feature but hardly works in any car stereo I tried it with, the signal just seems to be far too week. The same goes with the IR as a remote control, week signal.

.....beautiful just opening and typing in there.
pierogi works on philips 58pfl9955 from 5+ meters. On friends Samsung TV its only 3 meters. So it depends what TV you have.

Still my primary phone, also.

Can you still add a poll to this topic to get a sort of count?

Even after buying sackfuls of the other phones for family and friends,
I am still not even tempted by the other kludges out there.
( iphones, samsungs, experia, blackberries, etc. )

I hope the ubuntu phone makes a difference,
but I am definitely not wasting any time waiting for whatever
could possibly replace the n900 - it is still by far the best
thing to ever happen to telephony.

I have two I use every day (one for telephony and one for datacomms)
and all my friends are still jealous of what I can do with the n900.

If I could ever get Sabayon on a handset the game may be over,
but until then my phones remain n900.

cheers

n900 is primary, second cell was nokia 1100 but its got some strange problems that repairing guys cant repair so its done. N900's usb port is a bit messed up, i have to fix it myself but i dont have the tools, solder iron etc. But i did practice opening it all apart and then assembling it back. Anyway n900 does charge, but i have to put some pressure on its cable, but ppl tell me it'll break and n900 will be dead for me. So i am prepared to buy a second hand n900 if that ever happens. BUT, soon, n900 wont be my primary "Phone", no it wont be, but it'll remain the love-of-my-life-gadget for a long time i'm sure. Why wont it be my phone, cuz i'm about to dedicate it to learning finally, learning linux and gtk, i'm building an app for it so thats whats up.

Since i'm not a big phone dependent guy anyway, i'll be buying a low end device,, maybe some low-end lumia, or a symbian phone, but i was also trying to buy a Nexus 4, only cuz ubuntu phone os has got me so excited, so if i buy n4, i'll put ubuntu on it or something else of my open-source choice.

I dont know if any company will ever make a device like n900, if i ever got millions of dollars, i'll give old n900 team the thank-you treat of their life!

Been using my N900 as primary since I bought it when it first came out (can't remember when anymore).

Just last summer, replaced the back cover with a new one, cost me 15€. Also got a brand new battery as a gift from a kind ex-Nokia employee (their whole unit was being shut down and no one there seemed to have any use for their BL-5J stockpile).

Hmmm, I was so proud to buy a used N900 for 60 euros, now the GPS, main reason for buying, appears to be broken. It really was too good to be true.
Anyone interested?
