The Linux based Nokia N900 was the best phone I ever owned. With a bit of polish, finish and maturity it could have also been the best phone for the masses. RIP.

The follow up N9 was that. It was great. Elop canned it.

I had to import one from Australia. It was totally worth it.

  • I miss my N9 so badly! Without a doubt the best phone I've ever owned.

    • I wanted one, but then Elop killed it. I took quite a long time for Android to become as good.

I loved my N810, but Maemo had so many little issues all over the place, it was reaching "Death by a thousand papercuts" territory. iPhone did what Apple used to do so well, which was obsess about the user experience.

I second that ! compact, unbreakable screen, real sliding keyboard with backlight, beautiful interface, true debian, a total shame, I regret it everyday. It was almost perfect. Tons of apps, even Waze! Android & iphone are pure shit. Rip n900...
