I'm planning to get a N900 once it's out to replace my iPhone. Are there any game like Flight Control on it? To anyone unfamiliar with the concept is directing simultaneously moving object into a safe zone while being careful and preventing them from colliding. The basic concept can be applied to abunch of different situations. The iPhone devs choose the most obvious one with planes but you can do it with boats, cars, pizza delivery, taxis, etc. Are there anything of the sort in the repos?

Taxi Jam:

As you can see the concept is extremelly simple and can be applied to a lot different environment. This is pretty much the only game I play.
