maemo is far more open than android, you can't multiboot on android except for G1 can ya? Then there's the issues with trying to get super user access, since when was android easy on obtaining super user access?

I'll agree that n900 has been a bit of a fail for nokia but at the very end its a more proper linux tablet/phone compared to android and for now I can enjoy tinkering to my heart's content and using power tools available on proper linux unlike what android has to offer.. no rfmon HAH!
