I've got it working in Maemo by the use of the best widget engine - Queen Beecon.
Screenies:

Sense 2.3 theme under QBW
I can't see much of a difference, can you?

Now enough talk,
Let's rock:
Prerequisites:

1. Download Sensible_maemo.zip https://rapidshare.com/files/1130884...ible_maemo.zip
2. Extract its contents (Sensible_Beecons, Sensible_Clock, sense bkground.jpg) to the root folder of your N900 (./MyDocs)
3. Open Xterminal and execute:
   
   Code:

   root
   mv /home/user/MyDocs/Sensible_Clock/* /home/user/.queen_beecon_dir/

4. Wget
   
   Code:

   apt-get install wget

5. Leafpad

Clock Operation:

1. Add a new Queen Beecon Widget on your desktop, enter its settings (tap the wrench tool icon) --> advanced --> yes --> import file to buffer
2. In the dialogue box, go to Nokia N900 --> Sensible Beecons --> sensible_hr1
3. Returning back to QBW settings tap on export buffer to beecon
4. This should take you back to the desktop for a while, then back to the first settings dialogue, on the title (Queen BeeCon Widget Settings [idx] note down the id in your head or on a paper, then tap save & run
5. Reapeat steps 1,2,3,4 for sensible_hr2, sensible_mn1, sensible_mn2
6. After you've got all of the 4 beecons with their ids noted, insert 2 new beecons, and go to advanced, then import file to buffer, and choose sensible_tab and export it to beecon for each of these 2 new beecons, no need to note down id
7. Carefully, add the last beecon and go to advanced, then import the file sensible_dash to buffer and export it to beecon.
8. You'll be taken to the desktop for a few seconds, then back to the settings dialogue box.
9. Tap on Edit Cmd, in the Command: section you will have something like that:
   Code:

   y=id34[]m=id26[]d1=id53[]d2=id23[]w=id43[]h1=id3[]h2=id4[]h3=id5[]h4=id6[]

   Erase the id next to y= m= d1= d2= w=
10. The final code should look like:
    Code:

    y=[]m=[]d1=[]d2=[]w=[]h1=idx[]h2=idx[]h3=idx[]h4=idx[]

    where x is the number of the id you noted, and [] is the weird box symbol.
11. Tap on save, then back to settings, scroll down to Update Policies & GPS/location. Change all the (No)s to (yes)s and change @Interval to 30 sec
12. Scroll down to the remember me value, and clear that box don't let any number in it.
13. Finally tap save & run, and rearrange the widgets !

Weather Operation:

1. Download attached YahooWeather.txt to the root folder of your N900 (./MyDocs)
2. Open it via leafpad
   Code:

   leafpad /home/user/MyDocs/YahooWeather.txt

3. Search for the line
   Code:

   "http://uk.weather.yahoo.com/england/newcastle..."

4. Erase it (what's written between the "")
5. Go to this link: http://weather.yahoo.com/
6. Search for your location by name, not by postal code
7. Copy the address of that webpage and paste it between the "" in the file
8. ctrl+s on your N900's keyboard to save

Ex: "http://uk.weather.yahoo.com/england/newcastle...."
would turn to:

Code:

"http://weather.yahoo.com/united-states/florida/miami-2450022/"

Note: By using this, you're experiencing some of my very crappy gimping, so any graphics guru (Qosmio, Switch_...) are wlecomed to enhance the .pngs.
Oh and BTW this also works seamlessly on the modified portrait hildon-desktop:
