There seems to be two things above the microphone, one rectanglish and above that, one round, the round could be a front facing low resolution web cam.

This resistive touchscreen and spacebar ******** is a really good reason to buy Nokia products, imho. Everyone's going on about how stupid and uncool they are, yet they stick with what they think is the superior solution. That's respectable.
While everyone else is busy caressing the "cool" stuff, I'll just use my vastly more accurate nail on the Nokia touchscreen, and press the spacebar where it's closest to my right thumb, thank you very much.

Is it a button close to the camera button ?
An IR port would have been cool to use the n900 as a remote

Edit: Although I will say im getting really tired of IR remotes. The nicest remote I have is the one for my PS3 that is Bluetooth and I dont have to point the stupid thing at the screen! Lets move on TV industry! The really nice Logitech remotes use RF. I know its cheap, but the tv's these days certainly are not! My 52" LCD set me back 2 grand!

Kind of have to agree with them regarding the space bar key. It's really a bonehead move by Nokia and that's coming from someone who loves Nokia phones. There is no advantage (in typing speed) by moving the space bar to that location. If anything it presents a learning curve for using the phone.
I am glad that some companies try to innovate and better a common design by looking at the use case scenario. For any handheld device in landscape mode this keyboard with space bar is better than the older conventional style.

What good is an IR port these days..
Most of the time they're too weak to be used for universal remotes anyway. Their beam is either too weak or too narrow.

The shape next to the button.
It's not a button, could it be an IR port ?
I agree with you, IR ports are mostly too weak to use the device as a remote, I was just dreaming
