If only this wasn't restricted to AWS. Developer support was the biggest flaw for previous iterations of Maemo for me, but if this had 850/1900 support, i just might be crazy enough to buy it over AT&T's flavor of Touch Pro 2. The internet experience looks to be above that of Windows Mobile, along with the UI. If there was a good office app like Quick Office, and a good GPS app (not happy with the monthly Nokia/Ovi Maps), i might be crazy enough to jump on it without 3G.

Edit: i forgot Japan and part of Korea (South?) which use CDMA or some variant. i could swear i've read about them having some GSM coverage, but i can't remember which bands.

"Its 900/1700/2100 HSDPA frequency bands mean that it will work on T-Mobile's network, foreign 3G networks, and AT&T's 2G EDGE network. Nokia doesn't currently plan a 3G version for AT&T."
granthell said:WoW! Almost $100 more expensive than the iPhone after ETF, and first month service charge and fees.How does that work out? Unless you don't pay tax where you live. I've bought two 32GB iPhone 3GSes, they come out to around $380 after taxes and fees (and these were upgrade fees). Tack on $175 for ETF... and I'm not even including service charges.

It uses a flavor of Linux, so pretty much anything currently available on Ubuntu and the like just need to be ported. I think openoffice has been ported... kinda bloated but it's pretty full fledged. I think Ovi maps is the only map app so far, but considering that tomtom (and maybe Garmin?) runs off linux, it's possible they may try and sell their software for it.

I think Ovi maps is the only map app so far, but considering that tomtom (and maybe Garmin?) runs off linux, it's possible they may try and sell their software for it. Regarding OpenOffice, Maemo doesn't run it. When you bring it forward to the development community, as many people have, you get a bunch of soul-patched slackers reminding you that this is an internet device, and you should run Google Docs, as though anyone who has one of these should have total-coverage wifi access where ever they go. Obviously, this will be a lot more feasible with the N900; hopefully, it will run better than it does on my N800, where anything more than the most basic documents seem to cause Google Docs to croak and die.
There is a work-around, using one of the various hacks that lets you run variants of Debian -- Turbo Debian seems to be the easiest, since it involves a prepared package and a 1.5GB image file for your SD card -- and then running it in that environment, but, as one might expect from running things that way, it's more than a little slow. On the bright side, AbiWord and Gnumeric have been ported over to run on Maemo . . . sort of.
As far as map applications, actually, there's a plethora of these for Maemo. Check over in the Travel section in Downloads on Maemo.org. Guess these are a lot easier to port than office apps.
If you go to mobilecityonline.com you don't pay tax unless you live in new york. After tax and even free 2 day shipping with Amazon it was 627.XX, but on mobilecityonline it was 592.XX. I have previously ordered a nokia n82 about 2 years ago from Mobile city online and everything went smoothly.
