Re: which other phone can do ssh server, bluetooth IP/tethering + cisco VPN?

Probably your best bet would be a rooted Android. There's also a Debian chroot available for Android, which would give you lots of Linux-y thing but I don't think it's as easy as EasyDebian for Maemo.

If you install IceTea (Java) then the standard Netbeans instal runs fine in Meamo. I guess Eclipse should too. I think there's a couple of IDEs in the Easy Debian repos too.

Re: Google Instant search (works on MicroB on N900)

Type about:config on the address bar, then search for keyword.URL. I think that's the right one. I think there was a wiki article about MicroB somewhere that mentioned this.
