It's not getting ignored as such; it doesn't exist yet. I own an N800. Its interface is as best tolerable, which seems to be fairly widely accepted; that's why everyone says to wait for the N900 and its new, Qt-based UI. But that's much like John Gruber's point in this article, that the problem with Android is that everyone's always focused on the next phone, because the current ones...well, stink.

The HTC hero is out now in the UK - and there seems to be quite a few iPhone users switching, including myself.

yeah, vapor ware will do that to people, and i hate to be the kind of guy who will fall in that pit (considering it will be my first "smart" phone) so yeah, guess the argument resounds.

But I still feel like this is the one I can put my money on. I mean, a debian based phone? really? i can't wait. The specs are strong, the software is strong, the community is there - we'll see when we see.
