If you're new to the N900, can I take a moment to recommend a handful of apps, addons, toys and usability hacks:
  • browser-switchboard - to set Opera as your default browser
  • cl-launcher - trigger a menu on opening camera lens, to which feel free to add flashlight, mbarcode, frontview
  • 3g2g-mode-selection-applet - switch radio mode from status menu
  • wifi-switcher - disable wifi when not needed from status menu
  • simple-brightness-applet - screen brightness on status menu
  • desktop-switcher - add buttons to switch between desktops, makes multiple desktops so much more usable
  • backupmenu - offline backups of rootfs & optfs to SD card

Oh, and +1 to kernel-power and moderate overclocking/undervolting. SmartReflex does wonders for battery life.
