You don't close programs as easily as you are used to with Maemo. Android supposedly closes them for you when it needs the space and determines you are not using it anymore.

You can still shut them down manually with Android though by going to settings>application management (or whatever it is called in Froyo) and selecting the app or a setting from within that application manager applet.


BTW, I don't use this on the N900 but as others have stated, the fact that I can is one of the reasons why I like the N900 in the first place.

Now that there is an auto-installer, others will try it and perhaps develop a greater appreciation for Maemo5 and may better understand the reasoning behind some of the decisions that were made during Maemo's development.
