Hehe, great idea. I hacked together a little app in python using pygame.
However, I did not add the soundfile, as I did not know under which license it was released. You can, however, simply convert the file the original poster provided (even on your N900, requires mplayer):
and then putting vuvuzela.wav in a new directory together with the contents of the zip-file i provided.Code:mplayer -ao pcm vuvuzela.mp3 mv audiodump.wav vuvuzela.wav
Have fun!
P.S.: One (among probably many) caveat, though: The soundfile doesn't loop very good. If we find a properly (i.e. CC) licensed one, we can however cut it as we see fit
A great app and with your first post on maemo.org too! 
I can't believe nobody has thanked you yet - they ask for a vuvuzela app, you deliver one - what a fickle crowd we have here
Maybe next step is to package it up with a sound file and put it on the repositories! And don't be letting your new found skills go to waste, beginners welcome in the friendly coding comp (link in sig below)
btw If anyone is stuck finding a vuvuzela wav file, I literally used the first result from a google search.
I almost cant wait to get into work tomorrow and have this beauty blaring away all day

I made one that uses the Accelerometer to start & stop de vuzuzela sound... Tilt the phone as if you where blowing the vuvu
the file is hosted here:
http://www.luckies.nl/maemo/maevuvu_0.1.tar.gz
-1. download the tar.gz to your documents folder on the N900
0. Open xterm and become root:
root
1. install python-pygame (if not installed already)
apt-get install python-pygame
2. make a folder in /home/opt with the name vuvu
mkdir /home/opt/vuvu
3. change to the folder
cd /home/opt/vuvu/
4. Unpack the prev. downloaded file
tar -zxvf /home/user/MyDocs/.documents/maevuvu_0.1.tar.gz
5. Copy the .desktop file so you get an icon in the menu
cp Vuvu.desktop /home/user/.local/share/applications/hildon/
(sound & picture file licences are unkown)

I think it's more easy if you add a queen beecon widget that plays the file

do you by any chance know how to package a deb? tried the wiki pages, but don't want to upload it to the repos, just want to make a .deb
