The 1 tangible benefit that I can discern to this event is: free publicity.
Another one: it could be a unifying exercise for this community.
The free publicity could potentially turn negative if any dishonest practice (mass botnet voting, etc) is behind the win. Then again, any publicity is good publicity eh? ;p

But people outside the circle don't realize that, so they just see it as a smartphone (kinda like seeing a desktop computer as a really expensive typewriter). I think it does the world more good to let people know: hey, you're missing out on something awesome. And if the N900 doesn't win, then it would be a real pity when someone shopping around for a device just says, "I glanced at the FoneArena Smartphone Championship and this Galaxy S thing won, so I figured I'd get that."
No, this is not just some popularity contest. This is a chance for open source devices to stake a claim on the map. It does matter. Go vote. Now.
