may i ask what is meant by live wallpaper?, does this mean like a video?.I only ask because i once saw an app running on an android handset that refreshed the desktop from a webcam.Pretty cool i thought considering all the free to watch webcams on the go.

technically it can be anything 
its just another method of using the background area of the desktop
developers can use it for live whole desktop effects or just for changing a picture every now and then.

Cool, can you make more moving wallpapers? Like the moving galaxy on the Nexus. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKchi0eMqeI

mr. incredible.
whilst not a live wallpaper, it certainly is living
download liqflow.
perhaps we can make use of the dynamics and possibly even direct rendering.

Hasn't xfree86/freedesktop.org always been able to run apps in the 'root' of the desktop (that is, where your desktop image normally shows up). Desktop wallpaper in X was always a matter of simply loading a graphical viewer as root to show a desktop image. Just not understanding why, if the N900 is now running xorg, that this seems challenging instead of trivial.
