Even with the reboots, I *love* my n900... It's not perfect, but coming from using my FR as my daily phone for a year - the n900 is fantastic!! Of course, maybe there will be even better options available soon! ;-) Warren -- Warren Baird - Photographer and Digital Artist http://www.synergisticimages.ca
