You can use vmware: http://maemovmware.garage.maemo.org/
Or search this forum for andLinux. (Just a note, I wouldn't recommend andlinux if you plan on uploading to extras as generating a ssh/gpg key will not work in andlinux.)

Hadn't known of that obstacle, but if it's just key generation that doesn't work, you could generate the key on the tablet, and transfer it to the machine.
My tendency (Windows-side) is Cygwin rather than coLinux, but I don't do any tablet development there, and while it should work, rebuilding the SDK for Cygwin/NT would be a major project in itself; I'm not advising that for this in particular...
You could always do cygwin/NT+coLinux side-by-side, but that would wind up confusing me at least.

I do all a lot of my development work with Windows.
I use an open source editor (komodo edit)
I use WinSCP and copy files between my n810 and windows (or occasionally my linux laptop configured similarly).
When i am away from anywhere I can edit using pygtkeditor directly on the tablet.
I have gcc on the tablet and compile directly on there using ssh.
It may not work for every project and compilation time is certainly slower than my desktop, but coupled with time to transmit the binary and execute it means its faster for incremental compilations.
Oh, this is C by the way
here is an overview of my app

I would have to learn C again though.
As far as compiling speed... I used to compile Clipper code on a 286. It really wasn't that bad. It teaches you to think through your code first. Actually I think I did some stuff on an XT... Modula-2 maybe? I obviously didn't stick with that for too long.
Thanks!
