I like the Galaxy Note because of its great stylus support. It's just been released in Australia and should hit Germany in the coming week as well. The source code has also just been released. It ticks most of the boxes that drove me to buy the N800 originally.

Actually, I would steer you to Mer. Mer just got rebooted a month or so ago as the future of community-driven MeeGo Core. The Cordia UI is based on Mer. The KDE folks' Plasma Active user interface may run off Mer. I know Mer has had a disappointing history with its past incarnations, but it seems to have a burst of momentum now and the promise of taking the best of what came from MeeGo and running with it in a fully open, community-driven way.
If nothing else, consider talking to Stskeeps about your plans, and he can tell you what pain & suffering lies on a path like this.
This is a bit disheartening and not ideal if you want to port applications rather than system sw and drivers (I want to do both), so I've decided to go for Ubuntu in the meantime so I have something that is at least vaguely usable while I look at the missing drivers, hacking together hw accel, etc.
With that said the Ubuntu XServer is segfaulting and I've just broken the install by installing the deps required to build mtev, but once that's sorted the UI should be usable at least (which is a nice morale boost).

why would we port it to such expensive brand name devices when there are tons of cheap tablets with comparable hardware like this one for 83$
http://www.pandawill.com/ployer-momo...te-p52651.html
wouldnt something like that be a better platform for porting a community OS to it(price/performance wise)

I'm device agnostic as long as it's readily available and has the required spec and realistically one would want to support multiple devices (preferably with a non-accelerated UI as a fallback!)

I'd rather seem nemo mer on either the droid 3 or the htc desire z, i prefer the droid 3 keyboard though
if we just decide to port maemo to some specific one or two devices it might be achieved.. Even a partial working maemo is much more useful then current OS's...
this will let us stay with the community & maemo development for a much longer longer time...
