I personally say it much like "Spanish - Maria" does, which is halfway between the Finnish and the male Spanish voice...(damn inaccurate TTS systems).
That Maria voice says it like I've heard the Maemo people do.

The closest spelling for the correct pronunciation (using the Maria voice as my guide) for my dialect (Canadian English) is "my-ai-mo" all smoothly run together. The "ai" is pronounced how we would say the letter "A" (or the trademark Canadian "eh?").

EDIT: I think "may-moe" is a acceptable approximation, and really, it doesn't matter much how you pronounce it.
