As self-designated judge of this thread, I officially declare you Thread Winner.

Henceforth anything that is almost but not quite a MID will be referred to as a "netpad"

Thanks to all the other participants, your efforts were notable but disappointing.

Congratulations Capt'n Corrupt

Haha.. You guys are cool..

But I admit, I have an unfair advantage. I do branding and design for a living, so I have a pretty refined sense for what sounds 'right'.

Now that I'm actually making money, I'm ITCHING for the N900. I have a project that I'm going to be open sourcing pretty soon. It's not netpad specific, but it would be very helpful for the maemo platform. It would even be useful for Liqbase (lcuk I'm looking in your direction)! All in good time, I suppose.

Anyways, thanks for the kudos!

YARR!

Has anyone took a challenge to check if the name isn't already taken?
