To be fair.  The N900 has a resistive touch screen, and requires a stylus.
 Also, I'm pretty sure it only does EDGE on Rogers.  It MIGHT work on WIND,
but I'd have to buy a WIND SIM to test that out.  Honestly, I'd just get the
Nexus One that works on RoBelUs, but I occasionally leave the Vancouver Area
for Exotic Destinations such as Victoria, Squamish, or Chilliwack. :P
