Control panel>about product is NOT good enough if you have to manage several tablets, all with different OS.

Anybody?

Hm, that 'conky' applet shows what I believe is the same as uname -a:

(see picture, 'Nokia-N800-23-14 Linux 2.6.21' etc.)

Change the theme, or make a different wallpaper?

(Honestly, one could make a wallpaper-generator script to run on boot and superimpose text on an image, but I don't really see the point.)

Very good advice. A different theme and/or different background is the easiest way to differentiate. I advice this also on non-NIT desktops (Ubuntu, Vista, XP, etcetera). Conky (or screenlets/desklets/gadgets/widgets/whatevertheyarecalledtoday) is an option as well, but if you simply have different applets, that might ring a bell as well.
