    Have you done anything with your N900 that you have had second thoughts?

    I have.

    I have a Windows background so I am not used to use Linux and I am used to Windows "Are really really sure ?" questions. This in mind I tried to update an application which said missing libhildon1 package. OK. I tried to install/update that one. No help - allready installed. Then I thought: no problemo, I will remove/re-install this to make sure it is the latest version. While removing I was asked are you sure you want to continue (with a list of affected applications). As I am Bold and Beatiful, I was thinking why the heck not. If it is REALLY important I will be asked again and what harm can this remove/re-install anyway do? I know now ...

    Using it while taking a bath (although the stupid part was letting it fall out of my hands...). Immediately removed the battery and let it dry for a day. Works without a glitch (and still keeps me company during long baths...).

    That could be a problem.....get her on a diet.

    I have not abused mine yet....nor has anybody else, so probably the most stupid thing was to overclock it.....??

    Cheers,
