You can't take a desktop OSX program, compile and run it on the iPhone.
You are right but many people bought the n900 thinking "Oh great, it runs an open OS so there should be a lot of customizations and apps." This has not been the case so far. Hence why some people are frustrated. You might say, "well, it took the iPhone several months/years to get where they are now" but like someone else pointed out, does that mean, as n900 users we're paying $500-600 for a "device" that's going to always be 2-3 years behind what's already out there?
