neither. since its a nokia, it's an evolved communicator.

some say it's a "developer's" phone, but then again, can't any phone be used for development and testing for it's own content consumption?

though it was surely advertised as a smartphone. i remember the video where the intro was the n900 parts magically coming together, middle is camera capabilities and ends with a phonecall. it's responsible for me buying my n900. LOL

very tricky too. who would have known that it's portrait capabilities were limited to selected apps? i for one only discovered that not until i have taken it home. LOL. so that was why the video only showed portrait on the phonecall part in the end.
