I got mine a few weeks ago and for me it's the best thing on the market today, because of maemo.

To be honest I don't have many hopes for meego being better than maemo for a long time. Maemo has been maturing since 2005 and has an active community developing apps for just as long. Meego doesn't even have a really working beta or apps out, and once it actually ships it will take a lot of time to catch up to maemo. (I'm not using any website that requires Flash 10, so I don't know much about that.)

You can try installing Mappero (in maemo's extras) - it uses map data from Open Street maps and Google maps. The latter has Chinese street names etc. - It also runs smoother than Nokia maps.

I can't think of any apps I feel are lacking, but I'm probably just being unimaginative - I like the fact that maemo allows people to write their own apps without any restrictions.
