at the risk of answering one of your questions...
Get a g1, they're a techie's dream. The android OS is based on Linux, they're hackable and have a full hardware keyboard (great for SSH and whatnot).

The application market isn't as strong as the iPhone market right now, but it's getting better and is being strengthened by the regular developer challenges that Google runs. Additionally, if you use Google for your email the integration with the phone is tight (same can be said for Google maps etc...)

Best app I have on my phone right now controls the phone's setting based on location, time, battery condition etc... So when I'm at work, it goes on silent but at home during the day it switches itself to loud mode so I can find the fucker. When the battery is at 50% and I'm not at home, the screen brightness gets turned down to stretch the battery life.

evangelism over.

I was mostly messin'.
Though the correct dilemma is iPhone or N900?
If I pose that question I'd have to hate myself. More.

I'm dismissing the N900 outhand because it's supposedly the saviour of nokia smart-phones, yet I've not seen one review from any of the Shiney Things (tm) magazines/blogs I read... only drips'n'drabs of info.

That leads me to think everyone eaither thinks Meh', or it's not at that stage in development yet, so it'll take yonks to come out.

I've always liked the look of the Pré
