There have been several highlights in five great years of Maemo!

The first one being Nokia coming to GUADEC in May 2005 presenting the 770. And I was excited when I got the developer device in October 2005.

I can also still remember the day when I first got the FM radio tuner in the N800 play using my own code, after a long weekend reading through the kernel code. This was a great moment! The N800 is still my trusty every-day radio alarm clock and it serves this task for at least two years now.

Another big highlight was the coming together of the Maemo community in Barcelona last December, and that I got invited to this event by qgil. I'm now looking forward to Dublin.

But the most valuable highlight is the constructive feedback from the users of my applications. This wouldn't have been possible without this community on talk.maemo.org.

This all is what made/makes Maemo so much fun!
