Ok thought I would start this as no official thread on this handset and owners is on this forum...
Got mine yesterday and up to now i'm liking it! Its not that big and the 32Gb memory is great of course!
Software wise I think Maemo is a future hit once some kinks are worked out. I have installed Maku, Pidgen Instant Messenger, Bounce, and a couple of other enhancement packages...
Tonight i'm going to try getting Debian to install on some of the 48Gb memory currently available (i stuck my 16Gb micro SD in it!) and see what fun i can have!
Anyone else on here have one and any tips to further enhance it?

I sold my iPhone 3GS 32GB and bought the N900 with plenty of cash left. So far very happy with the change. The only thing I miss is an Office suite for editing my Word and Excel files: waiting for the release of the free KOffice.

Ive got one too John , again very happy with it at present, hence the reason for trying to trade my Milestone (dont need two phones with qwerty keyboard ). I agree with you that some things need to be ironed out, the phone part of the handset does feel as if it is an afterthought at first and takes some getting used to. Apart from that Maemo is very good to use. I would imagine with some Linux knowledge it would be even better

Go for it Jon, developing programs would be far too advanced for my limited knowledge

I read in What Mobile thread that Nokia are going to work on the phone part and iron out other things. They are aware of it.
