I got running the frostwire p2p (open source version of limewire) Software on the n900.It is working fine.

You need to install the java jre for arm.
I found it here:
http://rapidshare.com/#!download|273...1.tar.gz|34124
( with root privileges)

you extract the archive to /opt (you also can do it with filebox filemanager,with root mode activated in settings )

Code:
tar -xvzf /YOUR_DOWNLOAD_FOLDER_PATH/ejre-1_6_0_21.tar.gz -C /opt/
and then link it with :

Code:
ln -s /opt/ejre1.6.0_21/bin/* /usr/bin/
and then
Code:
 chmod 777 /usr/bin/java

now you can download the frostwire tarball
from http://www.frostwire.com/?id=downloads end extract it to a folder like /home/user/Mydocs/

Code:
tar -xvzf /YOUR_DOWNLOAD_FOLDER_PATH/frostwire-X.XX.X.noarch.tar.gz  -C  /home/user/Mydocs/
you can launch it with
Code:
java -jar  /home/user/Mydocs/frostwire-X.XX.X.noarch/FrostWire.jar
(note thate your Frostwire folder or archive name may be a different one, replace X.XX.X with current frostwire version number)


enjoy it :-) ... but you need good eyes update : you can get bigger fonts ..just change view settings
