I was thinking about something like that too... Sadly my N900 broke half a year ago, since then i am hustling around with a TyTN II (damn).

Now I am thinking about getting an N9, because I actually need a new contract and i found an offer with a N9 which is very cheap for me.

There is just one thing. I read in the "roof on fire" thread, and I really cant clarify the situation here, since I havent even used my N900 for months. All repositorys are down? Is there a realsitic chance, that repositorys will stay open for some time? Because who wants a N9 when all the infrastructure is gone. What you think?
