Make your life easier for developing:

Wifi Switcher
This little plug-in will allow you to quickly switch on/off your wifi connection. A must have to save battery.
Goto http://maemo.org/downloads/product/M...wifi-switcher/ on your N900 and click the Install link.


Backlight time-out
Increase your backlight time-out when developing which will stop you from constantly having to use the slider.

Code:
Menu -> Settings -> Display -> Backlight time-out
Warning: Once you are done developing, make sure you turn this down or you will drain the battery!

Also, you can check "Display stays lit when charging" which will keep the backlight on when plugged in to wall or USB.


Add Mad Developer to your "Desktop"
Add an icon to main screen for quick access to the Mad-Developer software. Simply press and hold on anywhere on the screen. Then:

Code:
Desktop Menu -> Add Shortcut -> Mad Developer
