What about the following usecase:
Running the N900 always/most of the time with a SIM inserted, but using the SIM only for phone calls, not for data connections.

Re: Any port of Ubuntu One (Amazon S3) for Maemo?

For S3 access you can also use S3sync.
http://s3sync.net/wiki
It's a Ruby based application and it's working just fine on N800/Maemo 4.

Re: So how's the WiFi?

There are big differences in Wifi sensitivity even between N800 and N810. N800 has a better sensitivity probably due to different antenna placement.

Re: Save Diablo! (a rant and request)

I wouldn't worry that everybody suddenly abandons the N8x0.

Going from N8x0 to N900 is imo a completely different thing than going from N700 to N8x0.

Compared to it's predecessors the N900 is...
