check Neo900 and fremantle threads. Not all Maemo5 components are done by opensource community, some components are still in binary blobs.

Well no offense but I am not really interested in paying an overprice , thick hardware that features a dual core processor from 2 years ago.
I guess maemo can't be implemented on android devices , shame.

Why not get some cool tech instead as a complement.

why , it's not like one uses 64bit desktop architecture and other does not.
I've seen maemo 5 run early osx and windows on n900 , something n9 couldn't even do. I wanna dream again.
n9 feels like an iphone with its basic icons.

People in the industry have paid considerably to make sure to never see this happen.
So it is normal that you have to pay premium to get a preview of what could have been.
I don't think that a 2 year old processor is a restriction for Maemo 5 or even Sailfish.
The thick form factor of the N900 (so comfortable to hold) is missed over here but that is totally subjective matter.

A lot of the Maemo5 components (including the drivers) are not open source, that is the main reason.
So I remember buying the n900 in 2009.
And when I got a job and had a busy life around 2010 , I got an iphone for convenience and never looked back.
I was skeptical that there would ever be a successor to the n900 , but just last week I found out , and I was surprised.
So I bought a n9 64gb in a heartbeat.
Have to be honest, this does not seem no were ahead as the n900 was. There isin't much to do on it , apps window , notifications window , and background running apps window , that is all. No Desktops , no widgets , no folders , (not a pc experience)
So long story short my question is , has there ever been a android decide implemented on running maemo 5?
I mean if n900 had a a8 t instruments cpu , just like any other android why should it be hard?
Anyway I would love to see maemo 5 tweaked running on the latest nexus or something , with both vertical and horizontal menus.
Thank you!
