yeah, battey life is very appealing, aside from such a sleek form factor, which are my two big gripes with the n900

Still......no user changeable battery.

The usual imbreeding. Not good for any progress outside the pack.

Still a slick package.

the n900 also has an appealing battery life on paper, I'll be impressed if my iPhone fends stop complaining about the battery .

User replaceable batetries are overrated.
- Unless you're buying secondhand you won't notice performance (capacity drop)
- and rather than shutdown/reboot your phone to replace a dead battery at the end of a long day, you can just plug an external battery pack to continue to work. (or ubiquitous charger availability decreases the necessity...)

I think easy battery exchange is very nice and it would be trumpeted by apple, if they could incorporate it and maintain the svelt packaging.

I'm not that impressed. No spectacular new tech, though I guess that's just proof that smartphones are hitting a wall.

Next winner in smartphones is the one who gets through that wall. I'm guessing mobile cloud computing might be the next big thing, where I think MeeGo is in a good position, with multiple interfaces to access your data.

And only iPhone 4 to iPhone 4... Major fail there as far as I'm concerned. And iOS4 still falls short of even Maemo.

It is a beautiful device though, probably the prettiest phone I've ever seen (I was never a big fan of the 3G(S) design). And the screen sounds like it is amazing.
