Another vote for the panda... maybe a tiny panda? The problem is that the black and white panda is actually the "Giant Panda", which is kinda weird for a portable distro like Maemo.
Another idea: a raccoon? The ae of maemo could go over the eyes, like a mask...
EDIT: ...like the Minix mascot... sigh...
EDIT2: AHA! The RED PANDA!! Small, cute, not used as far as I can see...
Edit: That'll teach me not to skip reading page 4...and 5.

Every project can have a kitty or a bear... real geeks' projects have real geek mascots.
Enter Opabinia regalis. This nice Cambrian sea inhabitant had not less than 5 eyes and a nice single trunk with claws.
It's the ideal mascotte, also because you can draw it as you like (she left us only its fossils, smiling :-)
BTW I was an Opabinia in my previous life

The problem with the spider idea is that, even though I love the web analogy, it couldn't be put on the maemo.org website. It would look like a halloween site. Orange, Black, Gray, and now a spider? C'mon!

For small, cute, and proudly wearing its stylus, how about a woodpecker? Readily made into a cartoon-style mascot, too.

Ok, here's a raccoon / maemo.org version of S. L. Genius' cat:
The "e" is the winking eye, see?

Hmmm ... not bad, except that the racoon is not black ... its white/gray And the tail isn't yellow/black like a wasp ...
Would you try with more conventional colors please ?
It's really interesting ...

Could a Real Artist have a go at it? S.L.Genius? (Sorry I can't type out your full name, my mother told me that your first name is not a polite word)

On a tangential note, a few weeks ago, my three year old announced out of the blue, "Geniuses kiss frogs." I'm not sure of the truth value of the statement, but I've been considering having a T-shirt made up.
