but keep in mind that would require additional maintanence
but would be fine enough as you stated we can also use the official repos so no problems . we could have a fair amount of useful packages in our repo that be customised for our devices

NEON NEON is an extension of the VFP which allows for very efficient manipulation of matrices, and vector data in general. This is notably useful for processing audio and video data, or for fast memcpy(). Programs usually take advantage of NEON thanks to hand-crafted assembly routines. GCC can automatically vectorize code and generate NEON instructions, however this tends to have limited success. It would seem sensible NOT to require NEON in a new port since some modern ARMv7 SoCs such as Marvell Dove and NVidia Tegra2 don't implement it. It is also possible to use NEON instructions for regular scalar floating point code, and this can give significant (2-3x) speedup on Cortex-A8 hardware. However GCC does not currently implement this, and it is not always applicable as NEON instructions are not fully IEEE compliant.
Unless a software flash will fix it (because it still shows the NOKIA logo at boot), it is lost. But the good news is, that you can get one for ~70€ at ebay nowadays. My plan is to buy two and use one with maemo daily and have one with arch linux to play with So hopefully I'll have enough time then to write pkgbuilds/software/whatever so people could use tiling wms etc
