I've attempted compilation several times since I first heard of it a while back, unfortunately I've yet to succeed 
Has anyone?
Binaries would greatly be appreciated!

The link for the N800 version you want is http://www.sand-labs.org/owb/wiki/OwbN800Hildon . This has a nice hildonized interface, optimized for the n800. I'm trying to build it in scratchbox right now, but I have a slow (900 MHz) linux box, and I'm not sure if I'll be able to make a package when all is finished. I'm also leaving on Sunday for a week, so I'll try to get it done before then, but no promises!
[edit]Well, that was short lived. Getting an error when trying to make cmake:
Maybe because I'm under ARMEL, and not X86? Not sure... I'll keep trying... But I'm going to bed soon :-P
[edit2]Just realized I was using a different version of cmake than the website says... I'll keep trying!

OK, a small update to my progress. I got cmake, gperf, and ICU compiled. I tried to create a deb of ICU (because the website says you need ICU to run OWB), but dpkg-buildpackage kept failing, saying some directories don't exist. I then found a version of ICU in a repository (maemo extras? Not quite sure where...), so I think that will work...
I'm currently in the process of compiling OWB itself. However, because my linux box is SLOW (900 MHz, remember?), it has been compiling for 30-45 minutes, and it's only at about 40%. On top of that, I'll probably be going to bed (and leaving for the week, without internet most likely) in about an hour.
So, if I can't get a package built or whatever, I'll try to at least let you guys know if compiling works. Then, hopefully someone else with scratchbox setup can come in and compile quickly.
[edit]Everything compiled fine, but the compiled libraries come in to ~680 mb! Since I'm not booting from SD, that's more than I can handle on my n800. Anyway, I'm uploading my built libraries and binaries to http://truejournals.com/build.tar . You can extract with:
Try to guess where things should go (/usr/local/bin and /usr/local/lib?) and it might work. You'll need icu, though. libicu somethng is in a repository, just not sure which one at the moment. Good luck to anyone who tries this!

The below article is from yesterday. Has the Maemo code been reved?
OWB Site
Download for the n800 (compilation required, no deb yet)
