Xterminal is a window to your operating system.
If you are familiar with DOS it's the same concept (different commands for most part though).

The name of the operating system on your N800 is called Maemo and is a version/flavour of Linux.

If you find yourself bored some weekend. Take your N800 with you down to the local Barnes&Noble/Borders/Etc, grab a beginner's book in Linux and a coffee/whatever and read and follow along on your N800. Great fun.
