Hello folks, long time no see.
I've been reviewing my priorities recently and decided to sell those two devices. They've been sitting in a drawer for a while, waiting for me to start tinkering.

Well, the N900 has been tinkered with - I am offering to sell it as it is, or make a factory reset. It's the original Maemo 5, flashed when I purchased it in 2020. I am sure my changes made it more usable.

The Droid 4, I got as far as installing the u-boot (?iirc?) bootloader (see images), and booted Leste from a MicroSD a few times. The original Android OS is still installed, makes phone calls (no SIM lock) etc.

The devices are in Finland. Sold separately or together.

The price, excl. shipping:

N900, incl. a recently bought 2nd battery (PolarCell) with slightly larger capacity:
80 euros

Droid4, incl. a functional 2-part case:
50 euros

Instead of uploading pictures here, I made 2 galleries:
N900: https://dt.iki.fi/stuff/forums/maemo/sell/n900/
Droid4: https://dt.iki.fi/stuff/forums/maemo/sell/droid4/

On top you can get a 4GB microSDCard (enough for booting e.g. Leste) and a micro-USB charger.

Shipping inside EU should be less than 10 euros.

PS: don't bother telling me the Droid 4 is too expensive. You can get them for half that - in America! That's where I got mine from, and with shipping it amounted to more than 60 euros.

I exchange you the Droid against 2 N900. Would you?

Joke appart, I hope you'll sell them soon.
I did the same as you, some free space at home, some month ago.
I sold a Droid and 2 Openmoko on ebay (for almost nothing...).

Does Leste work fine on the Droid?

Good luck anyway,

Sorry guys I was super busy this week.

@teroyk, I answered your pm.

@ric9K, I hope that answers your question.

It looks like the Droid 4 sale is now in progress.

BTW, N900 is still one of the main supported devices for Memo Leste!

The Droid 4 is gone, N900 still available.
Did I mention it comes with a 2nd battery, PolarCell, purchased recently.
That said, the original battery is still good enough.
And everything is working, no USB or headphone port problems, the screen is clear (there's a scratch visible in the screenshots which I first thought was a cat hair, it's practically invisible), the keyboard is as new.

Visited this by typo in bookmarks; don't know had just assumed all the forums and talk would have disappeared by now.

I have N900 with no damage, boots and works. with stylus and TV out cable.
GSM doesn't work, else it would probably be my secondary phone if not main

I WILL GIVE AWAY FREE IF YOU PAY FOR SHIPPING.
If someone can rescue the little guy, else it is lying under my desk.
