1. multi-protocol IM client, jabber primary but something like a gaim or adium equivalent would be good.
mcabber
qutim
pidgin
Well actually you can use almost any messengers on earth by default. Just look for telepathy-*
2. c/php/html editor.
3. tasks/checklist and notes management. Would like to attach code snippets, audio and images.
qvernote
conboy
mnotes
None of them would fulfill a full list of your requirements anyway
4. rss reader, preferably something that supports the google rss feeds sync.
penguinreader
resistance
feedcircuit
5. VNC and RDP client. Just for quick and dirty administrative tasks on OSX and MSTS servers.
vncviewer
rdesktop
rdesktop-cli
6. GPS track logging, recording hiking routes nice if it supports Google my maps.
7. spreadsheet app. support for google docs would be great but not indispensable.
8. I have been using an app called TapaTalk for forums that support it. Is there anything comparable to it that might proovide some native support for vBulletin or phpbb3?
9. chm reader.
10. Have been using whatsapp as an alternative to SMS. They do an S60 version and I'm wondering if anyone has any success running it on the N900?

I was hoping I could get a heads up on what is and isn't good for the following tasks on the N900.
Thanks in advance, I'm hoping the N900 will be my modern LX200

You might want to download Grr. This RSS reader works very well with Google Reader
