The wierd thing about the N900 is that its running a pc like OS on a phone like hardware, hopefully it wont confuse consumers and end up emulating the recent failure of Linux on low end laptops.
Linux failed on the laptops because the manufacturers screwed up the software completely. On the eeePC, what little software you got was insecure, and the "package manager" (to use the term loosely) was horrible. The GUI was simple alright, but also buggy.
Had they shipped Debian stable with the Maemo interface and KDE apps, things would be looking a lot different now.
