Now that the warranty of the Palm Pre is almost gone, I just think: I would like to flash my device with maemo, I just don't have a clue how to start this. Is there anyone who can give me a tip, a how to or something?
Kind regards from Germany,

Simple answer is: not gonna happen.
In order to get Maemo on a Palm Pre, you'd first have to have access to all the source files of Maemo, which we don't unfortunately.
Sorry for the bad news - nice idea though

Maybe running cordia over the pre kernel. But I have no idea how, and what drivers are needed...

I find lack of apps and options with android. On the contrary I have found a solution for every wild thing has crossed my mind on this device (like having the speakers play music along with the headphones). I'm sure maemo apps can be quite easily ported to pre, or even plain run. Just like we're able to play their closed binary games.

It's possible. But Maemo is designed for 800x480.
