Exactly what I was hoping for. Except I haven't a clue how to install it. Step by step would be helpful unless you think noobs might brick it this way. Thx!

I downloaded the latest OS2008 package then opened an xterminal (shell), changed to the folder where I downloaded the package, gained root access, then ran "dpkg -i garnet*.deb". The package installed without complaint and the application ran. I was uncertain how to exit Garnet once starting it so I ended up powering off the phone to exit.

Press power button and then "End current task"
To switch tasks:
Press ctrl + the '<-' key (this is the standard shortcut that works everywhere.)

Many thanks to sarahn and Bruce.
In case anyone cares... during install got "maemo-select-menu-location: not found". Apparently maemo-select-menu-location was removed from Maemo 5, but the Garnet installer didn't fail/doesn't seem to be reliant on it.
Now to see if I can get my Palm apps to run in there...

I installed gvm on my N900 to run the Audible Player. Audible installs ok but when I try to run it, it crashes out. I had it working on my N810. I'll try messing with the compatibility settings.

I can't get Audible to work. It always throws a segmentation fault. As Audible was the only app I wanted to run in Garnet I'm going to remove it until a native Maemo5 version is released.
What would be better would be for Nokia to write a native Audible Client as per the AudibleReady Program

I suggest "hey baby" and last "Labor Time". There´s also "PG Calc". All for Palmos.
