Nokia N900
Nokia doesn't want you to call the N900 a smart phone. According to the company, the N900 ($569 unlocked) is a "mobile computer." Running Maemo 5 Linux, the N900-Nokia's follow-up to the Maemo 4.1-driven N810 Internet Tablet-delivers the Web as you'd expect it on your computer, including Flash 9.4...
Pros:
- Fast processor
- 32GB of memory
- Very good browser with Flash support
- Multiple customizable home screens
- Sharp 5-MP camera
Cons:
- Bulky
- Expensive
- Maemo 5 Linux may be confusing for some
- Limited number of apps

Nokia N900 Review
After speaking recently to a few other people who have used the N900 some said they had big problems with it such as it turning itself off. Not me though. I had no issues at all. I actually really like the Nokia N900. Not enough to get one but I think its a good bit of kit.

This device, regardless of the category in which we range, can not be the Christmas gift at all. For Linux enthusiasts, although no specific talent is required to use it, it does not compare itself with a good smartphone with good menus and licked congestion reasonable.

Nokia N900 Review
Nokia N900 is the final product which opens up a new path for the Finnish smartphone producer. After Google, which launched its new open source operating system for mobile phones, Nokia raised the stakes a few months later with its own vision, which is called Maemo.
Pros:
- Maemo operating system is really a hit, even though not that complex and developed as Android, it really shows potential
- Add to that the excellent Web-browsing capabilities, HSDPA connectivity, excellent touchscreen, as well as decent camera and you got yourself a really good smartphone.
Cons:
- I think the only drawback of the phone is the low life autonomy of the battery, and the high price as well, which could be a setback for those that have a limited budget
- Also, limited number of third-party software is an important disadvantage, if we are to compare it with Android.

Taking into account the Nokia N900 we were using was a pre-production sample, the handset looks like it could certainly be a strong contender for the smartphone OS crown. The screen may be a little unreliable, but if Nokia can upgrade this to a capacitive one on future Maemo handsets, we would...
