Try the N900 in a store and see if you're satisfied with it.

When it comes to n900 vs n97 question, you should ask yourself if you want primarily a phone (n97) or mobile computer (n900).

I'm writin this with my n900 and absolutely love it. But phone functionalities are limited and I don't expet it getting to Symbian level before Maemo6. But my phone usage is low and I knew what I was getting so it doesnt bother me.

ive had the iphone for nearly two years now..its become a bi**h to carry around now..its slow, buggy, and with edge on all day i dont get 12hrs of battery life, hence I want to upgrade to a phone capable of yahoo mail and web-browsing, i dont play any games on the phone and the linux backend on the n900 is a boon as i have been a linux user for nearly 3 yrs, have learnts a few tricks here and there to love the terminal..n900 = perfect for me

They bought something they didn't research.
There are some glitches here and there, but this is a new device with a new OS and firmware. you can wait for few month and try it when the firmware issues are stabilized.

If you are more a phone user then the N900 is maybe not the right device, if you need a mobile computer with excellent networking features that let you also make phone calls then the N900 is on top.
