sounds good! it looks N900 much better than iPhone, just because N900 is newest one?? anyway, the open source is best one for player that's want play with a toy.

This is a little off topic, but there was a nice user comment below a first review of the N900 in derstandard.at:
one user noticed that this was (finally) a review of a touchscreen-based smartphone that didn't even mention the iPhone for comparison.
a second user commented below: "why should they mention it as long as the N900 doesn't explode?"

One problem...
Not correct. iPhone 3G/3GS support TV Out via part number MB129LL and MB128LL at 480p - read here...

[EDIT : I asked if there really was a kickstand since I didn't see it in the pics, but here you can see it : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RP5R-5NX1BE]
Also, your comparison lacks one aspect, which is a big downside of the N900 : the dimensions :
iPhone 3Gs : 115,5 x 62,1 x 12,3 mm - 135g
N900 : 110.9 (-4%) × 59.8 (-4%) × 18 (+46%) (19.55 at thickest part = +59%) mm - 181g (+34%)
So it's way thicker, and weighs significantly more.
See what it really looks like here (the thickness doesn't show the thickest part, for the N900)
but I'm still not even touching the iPhone and definitely buying the N900 if I have the funds and the reviews don't provide me an excellent reason not to buy it.

Nice post, but are you sure the N900 has a kick stand? I haven't seen it in the pics. (here's a pic of the back of the N900)

There is a review online from a reliable mobile site: http://mobile-review.com/review/noki...-n900-en.shtml

I corrected the kickstand part, I finally found out myself, but thanks for the pic.
I never had seen a kickstand like this, so I expected to see something like the one on the N810. That's quite smart and more space-saving than the latter one, good change.

Yes, since day one. Lock in to where you're at in under 5 seconds too.

Yes, but the iPhone are a fast search software, Spotlight, while the N900 does not have similar software type. Yet it has the advanced indexing system Tracker.
And the iPhone OS can be displayed horizontally and vertically, while Maemo 5 can be displayed in horizontal.
