I didnt know it was only internet tablet, so u r recommending to stick to N900? what other options r available? :P thanks for the quick reply.
it really depends on what you're after. the N8XX devices weren't that everyday user friendly, but they held real hack-appeal. the N900 is definetly more main stream but it still holds this attraction. in a phone format I'm not sure there is much similar.
android might be worth a play but although the platform is open (in some ways more so than maemo) the devices aren't.
sorry this reply took longer, I've been out and now I'm replying on my device. niiiiiice

Are you saying what I'm thinking you're saying? Droid is more open than MAEMO?? WTF?
Anybody going for holidays to Dubai, yesterday there was stock in Dubai Mall Nokia shop and other shops selling n900 as well.
City is bankrupt but phones are for sale
Well I'm off to Dubai on the 15th, so if I don't get my phone before then I have to cancel the UK order.
At least then I can try in Dubai Mall.

Wouldn't recommend it.
No warranty in UK...
Also (I lived in Dubai) if you buy a phone in Dubai and it stops working in the first 28 days (even if you try it once you've paid for it & you're still in the same shop!) you don't get replacement, they'll send off for repair!

The way things are out there at the moment, you might get it at a knockdown price!!!
As I think I said earlier in this thread: I've written up the *whole* story (starting with my order) with NOS, including the ******** ship dates and all, and I'm going to send it as high up the food chain as I can get on Monday.
Which might just be fairly high up, if they've still got that ******** £1k hold on my account.
I don't know how much good it will do, but I live in hope that it will result in some arses getting kicked, and I advise others to do the same.
Keep posting over in the 'shop.nokia.co.uk cancelled my order' thread, too.
