abill_uk, I have been following your comments for some time and I quite liked your insidious comments against Nokia, but... Sorry, this has to be the stupidest suggestion I ever saw on this forum.

What makes N900 shine is being a full-fledged GNU/Linux system, either with Maemo or Meego. Even Android, being ported to the N900, while not a full GNU/Linux, uses the Linux kernel. Wasting efforts with Windows Mobile on the N900 would be not only counterproductive, it would probably create unprecedent rejection for this device.
