With all the symbian drama going on and nokia down the tubes of sorts with the garbage windows phone....

i was thinking of ordering a n900 from nokia usa just to have a 2nd on hand as a backup,

i went to nokia usa and you can no longer get one

anazon has em, but it still feels sad

They havent had them for a while. Why aren't you happy that Amazon has it

I have a three year warranty. On mine. Unfortunately, if it doesn't break soon, I will likely end up being offered a NWP8 device as a replacement.

Oops the USB port just came out.

nothing wrong with amazon phone. i got my n900 used off craigslist and wanted a nice shiny new one from nokia.

i was considering a ,nokia E7 just for the keyboard to have along with my n900. but now symbian is dead and if i am going with an abandoned phone os, ill stick with maemo

Still available in the UK - and prolly other European locations too. Do we assume you're from the USA as you didn't mention it?

Yes from the USA

I was shopping at the Nokia USA store. I have been using my current N900 since June (purchased it used off craigslist) I found out about the N900 while on a forum for openpandora.org its a open linux handheld project (I just got mine) that apparently has the same hardware at the N900 (arm cortex A8, 256MB ram, ect)

I had been patiently waiting for my pre-ordered pandora and the N900 came up in the forums. I had a t-mobile sidekick (yes basic, but I have been using sidekicks since 2002 when they were the latest and greatest)

Anyway.. when It came time for a new phone & since the N900 worked on t-mobile 3.5G hspa I jumped on it, I love it, a truly amazing phone. So I came late. And honestly, not much out there has impressed me. I liked the E7 for the keyboard, but like I said, if i am going to stick with a adandoned system, Ill stick with maemo (well at least abandoned by the manufactuer, not the community)

Not sad at all IMO... It's better if we keep N900 away from Nokia, because of their recent screw-ups...

It´s even more sad that the N9 has been dropped for the consumers. That´s sad. So i also consider to buy another N900 for backup. :-(

Actually, the N900 has been "on again, off again" at the NokiaUSA.com storefront for some time now... for that matter, NokiaUSA.com is a joke - it's basically a disjointed e-commerce site, with only a hodge-podge of phone info, and most of its support options cross-linked to europe.nokia.com.

You can still get the N900 from Amazon, and NewEgg still has some stock left (correction, I just checked and they're out).
