Cleven can use a dictionary to try and crack WPA, so it's definitely within the bounds of the n900 to do this. Of course, if your WPA password that you are trying to crack is not in the dictionary you are somewhat out of luck. Cracking any non-dictionary WPA passphrase that's longer than 8 characters probably isn't in the cards with a n900 (or maybe even with a PC).
