It would be great to have the same ability in the N900. But there is one thing that bugs me, though. What is the memory and performance impact of having lightHttpd running all the time (even when idle)?

You could also try Monkey webserver.
http://www.monkey-project.com/

I compiled it and can run it on my n800 for fast light web access.

tar -xzvf monkeywebserver.tar.gz
cp -pR monkey /usr/local/

## to start
/usr/local/monkey/bin/monkey -D (to put in background)
## there is no start up script so kill the pid to stop the service.

## Go through the conf file.The default port is set to 2001. Change that to your convenience

to check with defaults , start the server and then go to
http://127.0.0.1:2001 from your device.
