Not Near Me Now, but "Near Me"...for Firefox browser.
You have to slide the finger/stylus from dead area on the right, onto the screen. You have to have a web page open for it to work, but its the same procedure to open up the "Settings". You'll see an icon/button which looks like a "house", just above the settngs link.
That will open the Near Me app:

I was able to get Near Me working by changing the N900 browser's user agent string to that of a Nexus One:
Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 2.1; en-us; Nexus One Build/ERD56C) AppleWebKit/530.17 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Mobile Safari/530.17
One (easy) way to do this is to install the hideuseragent app from the extras-testing repository and setting the custom user agent to the string above. Of course, as mentioned elsewhere on this thread, you will also need to have maemo-geolocation installed in order to pass GPS data to a website.

I wasn't sure how the Hide User Agent app worked so I just pasted that whole string in the "User Agent: dialog box hit "OK" then "Set". It worked but do you know if this is the correct procedure?
When I hit "Remove" my browser reverts back to acting the way it did so I'm happy for now.
