From what I have heard there are a few people here with the N900 in hand. Have anyone tried to use the phone and a BT keyboard for writing a normal lenght report, like 30 pages long? Is it a pain to write it even if you use the tv-out?
When you are at lectures you usualy want to have the powerpoint in front of you, since its just 3.5" will it be comfortable to look at it during the lecture? In some of my classes the teacher doesn't use powerpoint(like physics and math), how does it work to write all the equations and graph directly on the phone? And how does the text recognition work nowadays?

yes. absolutely so. and the stand makes it even nicer.
Then at least one problem is solved
My tv have composit connections so that won't be a problem.
But how efficient is it to write all the equations on the phone instead of writing it on a paper? It is quite important that is fast enough as you can imagine

i've been using the ATI85 graphical calculator with the stylus, and it works just fine (except it closes/crashes if left to idle for a few minutes). it's about as fast as typing on the real thing.
Presumably it's still possible to use a full-size (foldable) bluetooth keyboard with the N900? That's what I use with my N800, and as the kbd doesn't take much more space than the N800 itself it's quite ok to carry with me for occasions where I want to write some significant amount of text.
Yes, you need to edit a config file and reboot the N900, but after that, you can pair a BT keyboard to the phone and use it, mostly like the N800. The main problem is that there's no control panel setting for the keyboard type anymore.
