searched on this long time ago and recently.
there isnt such a thing.
didnt liked WinMo that much, but i'd love to run Garmin Mobile XT for WinMo 6.5 on N900.
WinMo n N900 all use ARM, but hardware drivers (where does WinMo latch to for file system, camera, etc?)
it may be possible to modify Wine (Windows emulator) for N900 to emulate WinMo but i think no developer's motivated.
the whole gnu linux environment in N900 is much better (to me at least) anyway.

Honestly, while I love my N900, if there were an offer that would combine its hardware specs with a Windows OS, I'd go for that offer. I had an SE Xperia X1i and the only thing it lacked for me hardware-wise was the absence of the IR and maybe it could use more RAM. Not that I ever needed the FM transmitter, but that was also a sweet bonus on N900.
Run, don't walk, to the nearest hospital emergency room. You are having a psychotic episode.

Puting winmo on the N900 is just wrong

Well I have no love for M$ and I love my N900, but fact is that hildon UI is crap and even with all the n900s customizability I haven't found any way to make it even close to how efficient winmo was at doing smartphone (not portable computer) tasks.

I'm happy to post examples if anyone indicates they care enough

Yeah hildon is a bit rubbish, also after a few days, I find that the CPU spikes upon wakeup, killing hildon-home & hildon-desktop "cures" that.

Would be great to have alternate UI's on N900/Maemo

I have never seen winmo. I'm interested in to hear what it do better than Maemo5. Maybe ideas can be then added to: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=75970

How you define (separate) what is smartphone-task and what is portable-computer-task?
