I researched this device a lot before purchasing (even tried out the SDK) and it's pretty much exactly what I expected. On the first day, I got root access, NFS, ssh, media, wifi and even bluetooth PAN working.

Diablo was released the next day so I upgraded. At this point, it's back to that state except bluetooth PAN :(. GPS was poor at first but I found on the forum that maemo mapper works if you use the bluetooth option and it is working great now.

I plan on using this in my car so I'm looking forward to setting up media, GPS and phone to work smoothly together. Maybe I'll even get a chance to play around with integrating all of them (after I find out what works).

Hoping to find a nice, compact USB OTG adapter as well. It'd be awesome to use a USB flash drive or possibly charge my phone while using 3G.
