While it's been on the market since November, it was good to finally get the Nokia N900 in my hands. The specs are what you'd expect from the company that creams everything but the kitchen sink into their products. 600 MHz ARM, 800x480 3.5" touchscreen, 5 MPX camera, etc, etc. This of course gives the nerdphone some girth, weighing in at nearly a half-pound and 0.7 inches thick. Still, if you're looking for a true Linux phone this featureful fatty delivers. Maemo 5 Linux is based on Debian. That means apt-get install prboom will result in some open source Doom action. The best news we gleaned from their booth was their commitment to the platform. We had heard some rumors of the N900 being the last Maemo based device, but we're assured the platform will continue to grow. We're looking forward to their Ovi app store to launch but until then there are plenty of apps and SDK options in the Maemo community. Pony tail and neckbeard optional.
