To answer my own question - the answer is that there is near zero professional development interested in the N900, so there's no software coming out anyway.

I was speaking to a friend last night who codes for a living, and he's currently working on the WinMo 7 SDK to get some games developed for launch (in the hope of making a quick buck). I asked him about programming for maemo in the interim and his response was essentially "no ****ing interest".
