At least until you get less actually ported you don't have to change your behavior.
Actually I alwyas yous the 'm' command.
M is aliased to less inthe .profile file, or when less is not there to m:
alias m=less

All, thanks for all the info! I've got less on my n900 now.
To summarise:
I got it via aspidites suggestion by adding the TOOLS repository "http://repository.maemo.org fremantle/tools free" to
the apt sources, and then running "apt-get less".
I'm not familiar with apt (am more a fedora guy...) but I noticed all repositories can be browsed via <url>/pool
(e.g. the http://repository.maemo.org/extras repo can be browsed via http://repository.maemo.org/extras/pool),
but this does not work for TOOLS repo.
Adding the SDK repository http://repository.maemo.org/pool/fremantle/free/ as suggested by Matan did not work.
I can browse this repository on the web, but adding it to the repositories (using application manager or using
aspidites way) did not work. I get the following error:
Failed to fetch http://repository.maemo.org/dists/fr...armel/Packages
So I could not run "apt-get less" from SDK repo.
Als also wanted to add the 'bc' package. I can see it in the SDK repository, but it is not in the
TOOLS repo...

On the N800 the bc package from SDK worked on the device. Simply download the _armel package and install it with dpkg -i
If I've helped you or you use any of my packages feel free to help me out.
