Markus grrh. I think I will regret this ;-)
Five minutes is nothing. It takes a long time.

Your pessimism is wrong. I didn't find it slightly dangerous. It didn't work for me at first, but it didn't hurt anything. I had to go read a book for awhile.

I personally had to reflash first to get it to work. To me, that's no big deal. Before I reflashed, I tried without reflashing about five times, each time waiting a long time, till my device said "bailing out". After it bailed out I stopped waiting, of course.

Your battery graph still works while you are running Android? Interesting; I wonder how it does that.

The battery usage is flaky at this point. I usually have charge my battery with an external charger. With this, I had to charge with the N900 itself until it went green. Then when I booted Nitdroid all was well. So I could MOSTLY till charge with the external charger -- it only seemed to care if it was topped up with the N900 itself.

Edit: Oh, you must be saying that Nitdroid shows half your battery is used up. That is not saying that Nitdroid is consuming half your power, as you seemed to be stating. As I said, it's flaky.

I installed, took ages to boot from a Class 6 card and was slow when finally loaded so I uninstalled.

Awesome job but I'm too impatient it seems? ;o)

No batterygraph in Android but just after running option 2 in multiboot, I can choose a boost in Mhz.
But then the drainage is huge.
Prior to install of NITdroid it wasn't an issue....

Well, I just had to install it (because I can ). I have a 2GB, three year old Sandisk sd card, and had to format it with 1MB for FAT to get the installer going.

It works like a charm. Surprisingly smooth and fast. Some hickups every now and then and drains battery like a 1kW oven, but all in all, this is great.

I guess the hard parts, telephony and power management is going to take some time??

One has to wonder. If Android was available from Nokia on the N900 (downloadable in addition to Maemo and soon to come MeeGo), what would the sales number of this device be?
