This N900 will have to be an AWESOME phone for me to pony cash up and get one, and I wont be the first in line - i'll wait and see how the others do. I've learned my lesson.
I've heard that Maemo runs on X11 which is a pig - so that might be an issue right there. who knows.
I remember when I got my n97 i was worried the specs were too low for the CPU and RAM but i was fooled by an article that stated that Symbian was from mobile platform roots so it did not need as fast of a CPU etc. Ha Ha!! Boy was I right. Specs on the N900 look decent but nothing that is WOW. Every time I look at it i swear i say in my head "that is what the N97 was supposed to have been".
It does look smooth in the QT demo - but that might just be the QT (you can get it for N97 too!!!)
