Claim it as stolen... get a replacement. No way I'm reaching in a toilet for anything.
Gloves. Then remove battery, clean, re-case. Assuming my toilet, which is clean. Public? No.
To the point: Yes. Device is pretty nice, hardware-wise, and the software is not it's fault. I wish I had 2 so I could experiment with another OS, but unfortunately I need it working.
By the time Meego device with better OMAP is out, I'll dry out. Next OMAP is almost identical, probably be just a clock difference, meaning OCd N900. Not worth it. I see a nice life with me and my N900, if only someone would fix a few of those annoying bugs.
There's so little work in OCing the N900 it's scary. OTA install, a simple command in the terminal and it's up and running. Try the OC thread for details.
I'll say this: There is no doubt in my mind N900 was designed at a higher speed. It was toned down in stress test, likely heat afterward or something. There is no way someone wrote animations they knew would stutter. It's so alive.
I've never had a phone like it. But if it broke for any reason, I wouldn't bother replacing it.
Some of the basic thing just don't work. Email/Calendar (I'm trying to sync both with Google Apps) don't perform as well as they should for a phone of this value.
Battery - it doesn't last a day for me. That's rubbish.
Freezing when a call is coming in. Also rubbish.
And all the amazing things (e.g. joikuspot wifi hotspot) can't make up for the incomplete results on the basics, so I'd leave it down the toilet. I'd just flush.
I would consider buying another one, but only after doing as much research as I can about the competition (minus Apple, I refuse to purchase another iphone after my 1st-gen iphone..)
I also think it's astonishing how many people have voted 'no' in this poll. Granted the sample size (at the time of this post) is only about 250, a whopping 40% have voted 'no'.
It might be in Nokia's best interest to send out a quick 'yes or no' question via SMS to all users. Now those results would be interesting
