Q:What are the alternative OS that supports Nokia N900? with calls[fully functional]

Calls working
Apps working
text working
bluetooth working
gps working
wifi working
3g working

anything less than this not required for this discussion!!!
Calls working means NITDroid is out. Apps working: what do you mean here? Maemo5 apps work on Maemo5. Android apps in NITDroid. WebOS games also in Maemo5. MeeGo apps obviously in MeeGo. MeeGo has voice calls, 3G, Bt, Wifi, whatnot. But it is dog-slow and has few apps. There are a number of other linux distros, like Backtrack5 or Ubuntu, but then you loose the easy touch interface, it will be like Easy Debian.

All in all your best choice is Maemo5+CSSU and dualboot to Nitdroid for new games.
