In my eyes, the nokia n900 changes that ballgame all together. Screw them all. It's open, do with it what you want.....
My opinion off course.

Besides the terrific keyboard. The OS was very responsive. It had a really good document writer and spreadsheet program. It offered one of the best calendar software ever. The contacts app was godlike. It even ran the Opera webbrowser so you had a comparable browsing experience as desktops running Netscape 3.0 and the works. There were plenty of third party apps. And all in all it just seemed like a very solid & polished product. Maemo 5 seems so unfinished, so not consistent..

And no Maemo/N900 isn't the first device you can develop on, you could already program apps for the Psion5 (and earlier series) on the device itself.
The Psion 5MX was seriously one of the best minicomputers ever. Not Maemo/N900, as the Psion 5 MX just was so much more polished. I wish Nokia will deliver a much better Maemo @ version 6.
