Picked this up back at the Bunker when a bunch of them were being given away by Steve.

I was going to put Linux on it. I read that you can, but I never got around to it or did anything with it.

First person to post here and then donate tenbux ($10) to VHS via the “donate” link here gets it!

Nokia’s are the best! I’m using a N900 on Wind since my Nexus 3 died. It sucks for surfing the web but I can still use the phone/texting.

Note: not running linux…just whatever ware shipped with the N900 originally.

Actually it IS running linux, just a pared down and customized variant
designed for use on mobile. Many standard commands work fine once your drop
to the cli.

Hey thanks @hjsvhsweb that is good to know about the linux. I wish modern phones were as well-made as this one. The N900 kinda shames them…although it is giant and also slow. :stuck_out_tongue:

Yeah, but it had a number of issues, the USB charging port was always
breaking, luckily I didn’t suffer that fate with my N900, however I know a
number of people who have. There were serveral other issues that I’ve
forgotten about, though I do remember that was my first foray into the
Android world. I’d set it up for dual boot, Android was painfully slow and
crashed a lot, but it did work, at least most of the time.

Isn’t the broken USB charging port issue the same class of problem you had
with your Nexus device?

Claimed! I put tenbux in Donatio today.

Now I just have to find it :slight_smile:
