There's been some good feedback from you guys i'm not a grahic designer or anything, but I would be interested in coding or the deign side, so if anyone could give me any tips or requires any help, i'd be happy to jump on board.
With more committed guys like you I think this phone still has a little life left in it.

More than a little, for me.
Since Nokia partnered with MS and has abandoned Meego, it seems the n900 might be the last real unix phone for some time.
I've already ordered a second one as a backup and can see myself settling in to this for the long haul (ie. 5 years).
i've been a designer since 2001 and i remember that my first ever post here said that i am more than willing to help devs with asthetics. since then, nobody ever contacted me about it.

Maybe because it is easy to miss threads on here?
EDIT: AKA Be assertive with the apps that you use.

Excellent! Sorry, I never saw that post of yours, but now that you've reposted, mind having a look at qgvdial?
i just wondered why most of the apps created for the N900 are generally bland and usually just have a black background with a standard layout.
I guess its because emphasis is on delivering a solution, instead of selling a product. Once the functionality is in, there's no great incentive to keep polishing (no harsh competition between apps on this platform).

I do agree that there needs to be competition, however I don't see why it needs to be harsh.
For example, epage and I both create Google voice interfaces. We compete. We also help each other. It works out to more choices and better apps. The users win!
Hmmmm..
Because using your operating systemīs theme as app skin is something that is taught in every single UX-desinging class. Apps that seemingly go with main operating systems theme are regarded as something that every single devel should be encouraged to do :|
For more about this follow recent market speeches about windows mobile and how user canīt see where apps start and where OS ends.
I do not totally agree or like this but to me itīs something that seems to be something that most UI designers want.
