What, if any, resources, like books or things online, could I read to learn more about making apps for the N900, and should I even try to get into this seeing as Meego-Harmattan might very well, uh...replace(?) maemo 5?
MeeGo puts the stress on Qt for application developers and Maemo 5 supports Qt officially now, so there is nothing really replacing.

What to learn depends on what do you know, what do you want to do and what are you willing to learn. A good recommendation for starters in mobile development willing to see fast progress and a promising future is Qt Quick. This link should be good enough for now: http://doc.trolltech.org/4.7-snapsho...arativeui.html

But of course what to learn depends also on the project you choose, if you decide to contribute to an ongoing project.
