I have to agree with much of what has been said already. I have had my n9 since may and I still have not left my n900 with out any charge.

Yes the n9 has some some nifty features and boy is it bliss to use, but I do miss the customization of hildon. Has anyone else noticed how quite the Design board is compared to this time last year? The "show us your maemo5 desktop” thread used to be a regular feature in the active discussion panel.

And whos idea was it to put the back button in place of the Enter button on the n9 keyboard?!?!? It's just wrong!

I acknowledge my mistake and thank you for clearing this up

I want my nine screens back on the N9! They succeeded in forcing the sea of applications on us, which they also tried to do with the N900. But the N900 had flexible ways to allow us to use more and prettier screens. The N9 apparently doesn't.

I have N9, N900, and Galaxy Note. Unfortunately the N9 is the odd man out and sits on a shelf collecting dust...

^ let your N9 rest in peace :-D

i have n900, n9 and sgs2, and lumia800
n900 for geeky time
n9 for daily use, some hack etc
sgs2 app launcher(really) lol
lumia800, meh sold

Of that there is certainly no doubt, I can actually use the N900 to browse the internet, something that went from sort of possible at one time on the N800 to something that makes me look fondly back at my 56K modem days.

But I'd be happy to keep the UI and outer hardware pretty much exactly the same if I could just put some modern hardware inside.

Back to the original topic. A couple of months back I was trying to decide what smartphone to get. I looked at several Android phones and then started to look at the N9 which seemed like an improvement over the Androids, the more I read though the more it seemed that while the N9 was probably better than any Android phone there was out there, it seemed that there was one phone that topped it in almost every way, except being a couple of years older. So I got the older phone.

How do you feel the N900 compares to the Galaxy Note?
I've got some issues with the N900 (will only charge from a PC). I will probably send it in to be fixed, but I was wandering if the Note might be a decent replacement.

Funny you posted this. Same happened to me. My N9 is sitting on the desk, its SIM tray empty, while N900 is in my hands and giving me so much more pleasure. I just hate typing on N9, no matter what people say, HW keyboard is the best, and the fact that you can use keyboard shortcuts...mmmmmmmmmm....its better than porn

That's really funny!


and it is also the the truth
