I would imagine it saves a lot of memory sticking with 16bit although photo viewing would be nice in 24bit, although probably only noticeable when extremely zoomed in to a photo.
Wouldn't 24bit also be a hit on the 3D acceleration? I am not sure if its possible to switch between 16bit (running a game) and 24bit, with compositing enabled. Could be a reason to keep Maemo 16bit all round.

Here's a fact:
Code:
$ python >>> import gtk >>> gtk.gdk.get_default_root_window().get_depth() 16 >>>

It's read-only. You'd have to mess with the X server configuration file.
And I don't feel like bricking my device.
16 bits color depth is what the users are going to see. Does it matter if you could hack it? (I doubt that you can increase the depth)
