I think the following features are enough in order to say Mer is usable:
It's Mer without the idealism and with realistic short-term expectations.
- Good power-saving
- Able to connect to WIFI
- Sound&video
- Able to install (maybe with recompilation) the applications of Debian OR Ubuntu OR some of the flavors of maemo.

How can we get nokia-binaries installed? I'm not familiar with the whole apt system.
/etc/apt/sources.list
apt-get install nokia-binaries
/etc/apt/sources.list
Code:
deb http://ftp.pl.debian.org/debian lenny main contrib non-free deb http://scratchbox.org/debian/ maemo5-sdk main deb http://repository.maemo.org/ fremantle/<token> nokia-binaries deb http://repository.maemo.org/extras/ fremantle free non-free deb http://repository.maemo.org/extras-testing/ fremantle free non-free deb http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel/ fremantle free non-free deb http://repository.maemo.org/ fremantle/sdk free non-free deb-src http://repository.maemo.org/ fremantle/sdk free non-free deb http://repository.maemo.org/ fremantle/tools free non-free deb-src http://repository.maemo.org/ fremantle/tools free non-free
Code:
nokia-binaries: Depends: libcumulus0 but it is not going to be installed

I don't think the binaries will work as they are - they'll need to be recompiled by Nokia, I think.
