    At the time of buying the mobile phone, you will it get in a fantastic package box. In the box you will get Nokia stereo headset, Nokia Battery, Nokia charger adopter, travel charger, video out cable, and a cleaning cloth. In spite of all the advantages this device features, the major limitation factor is its price. The price of the phone is expected to be around 500 euros without any subsidies and taxes. The price is quite high and it is to be seen what Nokia does to... Read more

    Technically more advanced than most of the competition, the N900 is severely lacking in features to hook in the general user. This terminal should be reserved for super geeks who love getting inside the technology. The N900 certainly won’t be a stepping stone into the mass smartphone market for Nokia. Read more

    The Nokia N900 could be a hint of things to come. Far more than a phone, this powerhouse fully deserves its ‘mini computer’ tag with phenomenal multitasking abilities and an internet experience to behold Read more

    The Nokia N900 doesn't want to be your first smart phone (it almost doesn't feel like a phone at all) -- instead, it's a mini computer trying to break new ground with the Maemo operating system. Despite heaps of excellent features already, its best apps are yet to come, so it's most suited to those seeking a powerful and customisable gadget, rather than just a great phone Read more

    Reviewer: bonerp, Stuff.tv

    Had the n900 for just over a month.  Some tweaks are needed but as with all new phones you get a few bugs.  None of the functionality is unusable and the phone is very stable. The browser is superb.  Multi tasking like this unseen on phones up to now.  remember though, this isnt just a phone but a mobile computer.  And a very effective one at that - hence slightly larger than some other phones. Proper push email and always on 3g connection. Issues for me - can't use... Read more

    This review is from: Nokia N900 Sim Free Mobile Computer with Maemo 5 Software (Wireless Phone Accessory) The Nokia N900 smartphone runs Maemo 5 (Linux) operating system. Nokia have released a phone for the open-source community and which hasn't been locked down by either the service provider (T-mobile, Vodafone) or Nokia themselves. This is great news for developers as well as hackers who want to customise their phones as much as possible. Out of the box, the phone is... Read more
