THere is another confusing aspect about the N900 to setup nokia messagin. After readin various forums i came to know that after you go to menu and click on email and want to setup nokia messaging..you get nokia messsaging as a service provider which i dont get. I get other providers like hotmail but they dont seem to be push emails. They jus check at particular time like 30 min interval which i dont want. I want that as soon as an email comes its shows on my mobile. I configured nokia messaging on nokia 5230 and that works perfect well.
i am a big fan of nokia and am using N900 for over 2 weeks now and its running fine no reboots no backlight problem. initially it had some issues like blinking messages in conversations and web pages unable to load with a reload error and maps not opening , but all these bugs were fixed after the huge 90mb PR1-1 update via OTA . now i am using my N900 with idea cellular with an unlimited EDGE plan . and since N900 cant dial no.s starting with * or # . i use ussd widget and its great shows my balance with jst a touch . Mine is a UAE variant and i ordered it via Ebay India . Now my N900 is working like a charm with no new problems..

what about nokia messaging? do you see that as an option in the service providers list apart from other providers like gmail or hotmail. nokia messaging uses something else apart from gprs and hence ur not charged. And also its push email unlike other accounts
where wud i find this USSD widget? cudnt see it in maemo downloads
USSD widget ( Helps to dial numbers with * # etc) is in the Extras Devel repository. U gotta activate it. procedure is given in maemo wiki..
hope this helps.
