Yeah.. Easy Debian is a good addition to Maemo. In my case i use Gimp for my photo editing and was supprised how fast it was. Was expecting it to be much slower.

Re: Easy Debian...looks pretty good.
 
in ED can you change the resolution of the screen by using xrandr? eg

xrandr --output LVDS1 --mode 800x480 --scale 1.5x1.5

(you have to replace LVDS1 with the name of your screen, see
output of xrandr)

It is a good idea to uncompress the image on a fast computer.

Finally, I can now open email attachments in doc, odt or pdf. Doc and Odt are opened by Openoffice3,. That is real slow to the point of being unusable, but again I hope to improve that by plugging in Koffice in stead of Openoffice.
You could overclock your device and try again. @ 1 Ghz apps are quite responsive. But again not huge files. Even my 2.5 Ghz dual core suffers opening big pdfs, odts...

ED uses Gimp as the imageviewer. That is a bad idea imho, like using a cannon to shoot a mosquito. I looked where to change that but could not yet find it.
Alternative option --> Geeqie. Gthumb might be another alternative for picture viewing.
