* I have two N800's -one for me, the other for my family. Use them around the house, and for checking in when mobile via a tethered phone.
* I'm interested in bug fixes for existing functionality, especially basics like Modest fixes on Diablo. I mainly use email, browser, RSS, Maemo Mapper, Gpodder. Get rid of nagging problems with them, and I will use this hardware until it dies.
* I usually contribute by helping new users with questions. (Now that my hardware is dated, my utility in this function is low.) I can program, but due to other committments, can't invest the time.
* Longer term, if Mer is usable on an N800, and supports getting newer versions of apps like the above, I will use it. I suspect that I will likely be in the market for new hardware by then though - the N800 is fantastic, the best hardware design to me, but if someone has a newer machine with a similar screen size, similar tablet functionality but with an updated processor, I'd be investing in it. (Especially if it ran Meego or Mer.)
