To me, the irony is that Nokia unveiled the N900 back at the end of summer, and it was an amazing device, something I truly couldn't live without.

Then they gave me 2+ months to test my theory. Turns out I CAN live without it, quite well.

I'm certainly planning to buy one eventually, when they're not so insanely difficult to get in Canada (at a reasonable price, anyway). But I suspect many impulse purchases were lost. Perhaps this is a good thing?
