[Nottingham] What mobile to get?

[Eben Till]

I have the N900. It's pretty cool, it doesn't have commercial interest so
don't expect super polished 'apps' ;)
However, it is linux and not as restricted as android seems, python and C++
are the most used languages for development rather than just java.

I've overclocked it to 1Ghz, it runs nicely, the eye candy isn't as nice as
android in my opinion but everything else makes up for it.
You can also install NITdroid on it (A port of android) which has very
recently got SMS send/receive support and the Meego 1.2 developer edition
N900 image comes out this week! Only phone I know of that can boot three
mobile OS's
