(I uploaded it on my site with maemoftp which quite luckily works under Maemo5 too. Should someone like an optified version, lacking only some icons which likely came from the maemo4 system, it's here.)
EDIT: Post 5600, I need to get out more.

Hmm for a file manager I think rox-filer would be great for the N900 but it would need to be hildonized.

I think that deliberately hiding part of the file system from users is not only evil but it's downright Microsoftian (and Applelike, too). It is not something that any of the Linux distros I've ever used, and there have been quite a few, have ever done.

if they don't hide the files, all the "phone" users will eventually messed up their system by accidntally deleting something...nokia rather deal with the couple of power user than all phone users.

I would sacrify esthesis for practicality. I know, I know, with limited screen estate, there is not much one can work with. Thanks

In the long run, with the small screen estate of the N900, I would think a portrait mode with one box sitting on top of the second should be better the current one. Again, I understand, one would not want to spend hours to surgery on pipeline's baby

I don't mind my device having "DCIM" as the folder name for my camera pictures. I just don't like the File Manager "abstracting" everything by changing the folder names. At the very least, I want to be able to switch to "advanced" mode and see everything the "right" way.
I must admit that the file:// trick is very clever, though...
