Don't know if this is a direction worth thinking about
It is definitely possible to get JPush to send an update request to the n900. I had it setup to force TOR to update a while back, but I sort of gave up on it when I became busy with school.

You would need a mail server to be running on your n810, so I am not sure how well that would work. The documentation for JPush is not that great, and I know from experience that setting it up is a pain.

It always felt like a hack to use jabber status messages as the notification system in JPush (this presents some limitations). I can't decide if switching to something like MQTT would be worth the effort (and what the battery impact of yet another always open connection would be).

What we really need is a push service for the device like android, iOS, webos, etc have. Nokia is supposedly creating one, but it doesn't look like it won't be for maemo5, but for meego instead.

If you can expose a script that forces a message update, I can try to hook into it with JPush.

Let me know if you have any questions about setting JPush up, and I'll see if I can help.
