I personally dont want to risk it at all because you have real money on the line and there is no support for n900/maemo. When I am trading I dont want to have a software lockup or even a slight hiccup (especially in today's mkt) that could risk stuffing up my orders. I only rarely use the n900 to exit trades via web.

if i could be assured of rock solid stability i would use the n900, but i am not confident.
i check prices thru google finance, which is almost real time. yahoo finance also has real time prices, the yahoo one is data intensive and i use when wifi is available. i place orders in the investment firm website. all is encrypted, and one can always verify the status of the order. risk are on someone looking over your shoulder on your password, or if u loose the phone, u should change all passwords, and that's for all phones. i buy and sell stocks.
