Nice to see that discussion about Neo900 is starting again.

The project started as an N900 with more RAM and newer CPU, nothing else.
I would actually now be interested, which features of this phone might be most interesting or most important for buyers. Hardware specs might not be so important for most buyers. Example: Nobody complained about "only" 1 GB RAM in iphone 6, it was even no problem that the amount of RAM was not publicly announced by Apple.

Is it...
... usage of linux package management on your phone (apt-get)?
... privacy?
... security?
... choice between multiple OSes?
... default no Android?
... Maemo?
... root access out of the box?
... hacking and tinkering experience?
... not boring as the usual android phones?
... using standard linux apps?
... ability to run current linux kernel for long time?
... ability to run native Linux Apps and Android apps at the same phone?
... standard linux desktop like experience?
... updated N900 with more than enough RAM compared to almost no free RAM on N900?
...

I hope you share your ideas on this topic.
