I so hate those warnings, we were just forced to put them because of the severity of the damage that i2cset could do (h-e-n is perfectly safe to use FYI), I'll do it on the next release.

I personally use the Mini to Micro ones (exactly like those) to charge my N900 from my old Motorola RAZR charger (RAZR used a mini usb port).
They are, to say the least, fragile. A little bit of force up or down when it's attached to another port, and it has a high chance of pushing itself open from the inside. Inside the cords hold together, and if the pins that hold the two plastic pieces together don't break and you don't damage the actual cord bits inside, you can just close it again. Applying tape or maybe glue to where the two plastic parts come together on that adapted would probably solve this. Careful use makes them last for a while too. (I just noticed the pictures are different for that product. The first one shows different ones than the second two... So *Shrug*. My experience is with the one shown in the generic first photo.)
As for the first item, the USB to Mini USB cable, *shrug* should work, with the other one.
Assuming both sellers are legitimate and you get both of them as advertised and working, I would say it should be fine.

@MohammadAG OK I've managed to get the pmount source accepted by extras-devel. Problem was an unspecified dependency of libblkid-dev on libuuid1. Unfortunately there is still some debugging code in the 'configure' file in the repository but it doesn't seem worthwhile making another version just to take it out.

@MohammadAG, I'm asking for adding this comment on terminal, to say that something is waiting for a response in screen:
Please read and acknowledge the important notice displayed on the N900's screen

I connected inexio 46" touchscreen to the N900 and it worked but was not calibrated. Where ever I touch the monitor it seems to get input only from left top. Is it somehow possible to emulat that as mouse? And after playing it for I while N900 built in touchscreen stopped working and I had to disconnect inexio touchscreen to get it working again.

Is it possible to attach a usb tv tuner card and watch it on N900 or am just dreaming too much ;-)

This is my first post on the maemo forum, although I have been using it as a reference for a few months and I have to say it is a fantastic community.
Before I am given the stock reply of "use the search" I would like to ask if host mode can be run alongside overclocking. I've seen that it won't be possible until a power kernel release for pr1.3 but I recieved an update for power kernel a week ago.
If not, is it at least possible to multiboot between a kernel with overclocking and a seperate kernel with usb host mode.
I am developing a game in python and at the moment I require 850mhz to get a decent fps.
Thanks and sorry for the n00bery

After an hour (I thought it was frozen) I've taken the device, and seen the license message on screen. Oh, that was the issue!
fcam-drivers package makes the same (graphic message on device screen), but explains it on terminal:
