Is Maemo 4,5 more like:
Modern 64bit OS with hardware assisted 3D GUI?
Mature 32bit OS, lots of apps, simple GUI.
16bit OS, old, but can run on the most primative hardware.
What desktop version of Linux is Maemo most similar?

Since Linux was around since the early 1990s, I don't think Maemo can be easily called "It's a Linux" since Linux has been constantly updated since the introduction.

Mature 32bit OS, lots of apps, simple GUI.
I'm just trying to understand how Maemo compares with other OSs.
Is Maemo 4,5 more like:
Modern 64bit OS with hardware assisted 3D GUI?
Mature 32bit OS, lots of apps, simple GUI.
16bit OS, old, but can run on the most primative hardware.
What desktop version of Linux is Maemo most similar?
I had trouble just finding if OMAP2,3 is 16, 32, or 64bit. Guessing must be at least 32bit since they use 128 megs of RAM.
Thanks! Please use correct terminology so I can search keywords myself.
