The Nokia N900 is something else, it's like a Swiss army knife or Volkswagen Beetle when it comes to smartphones.
The Pinephone gets very close to it.
Elon Musk should buy WA to bring back Yappari on the N900.

I do like the comparison with the PinePhone, it makes sense. I also really liked the concept of the Pine but since it is such an underpowered phone, I chose to buy the best device for every OS I wanted to have. And comparing any OS running on the Pine, i can see that I made the right decision.

I can also see what you mean with the Swiss Army knife and I can explain my perspective in your example.
If I’m in the jungle I prefer to have a machete and If I’m in the mountain I would like to have my shotgun.
The Swiss knife has many functions and it’s great, but won’t help me with a bear or clear a path.
