While allowing USB charging is on my wish-list - I hope it is not the only option.
USB allows 500ma, my N810's power adapter supplies 890ma.
I do not think a device is even supposed to draw the full 500ma w/o "asking" politely first - which makes high(ish) speed charging dependent on the ITT and your PC having a little chat - something which can not happen if the ITT's battery is fully discharged.

Depending on the price, I will buy the n900 no matter what. (LOL)

I'd rather buy a Pandora because I know it will have proper gaming controls, plus I can count on several emulators working flawlessly almost immediately after the units start shipping out. I just hope they sort everything out and actually start shipping out units before 2010 though...
