Hi again, It appears that a number of you are not aware of what a Nokia N900 is, so please allow me to clarify:
http://maemo.nokia.com/n900/specifications/ As far as I know you can't get them here in Uganda unless you want to spend $1000 at the Entebbe Duty-Free shop. I've imported them as a favor to the open-source community here, not just to make a quick buck. The operating system (Maemo) is based on Debian Linux. It's completely open-source -- the software repositories and updates even use apt-get. It's got a big touchscreen, full slide-out back-lit qwerty keyboard, two cameras (one is 5MP, both can do video), GPS, OpenGL 3D, 1GB of RAM, a 32GB HD, an infrared transmitter, an FM receiver AND transmitter, supports 3G, GPRS, WCDMA, WIFI, etc. It can output 720p hi-definition video via an included cable, it has multiple desktops and can multi-task to the tune of ~30 applications at once. It's also a phone. You can run Postfix or Asterisk on it, open MS Office docs/Powerpoints on it, turn it into an instant wifi-hotspot, play multiplayer Quake 3 or OpenArena on it, mount windows shares on it, SSH to it, broadcast streaming Internet radio stations to your car FM stereo, plug video-out into a projector, fly a remote control helicopter using the infrared +accelerometer, or anything else you can imagine. Review the specs link above. It's easily the most advanced mobile device on the planet, and it's open-source. I have three of them available and they're $650 each.
