Hey man! Cant thank you enough for dedicating time working on this! I bought the N900 knowing this would happen eventually and i guess you're the only one man enough to go for it eh? AND feels so good to find a brit doing some major tech stuff for once :P (could tell by the accent :P),

Quick questions though, probs been answered before, but is there like a Bootloader which lets us choose between android and maemo? and is there any portrait support? that'd be awesome...yes landscape is good, but really annoying sometimes! Oooh and when you release it, will you set the home button as the backspace key? i think soft touch camera key would be awesome, just saves the hassle of opening the phone everytime, although it MAY conflict with the camera somehow, nevertheless they got it working on maemo, will probs work on android too without conflicting Just a suggestion but cool with anything

Thanks again for doing this! You'll go down in N900 history

Good luck man!

Just fyi I didn't get the wifi working on the N900 using the source from android. I built the wpa_supplicant from

git://git.omapzoom.org/platform/external/wpa_supplicant.git

This got me past the point of not being able to scan for wifi networks.

Hope this helps

Can you upload your progress to date so others could try it out and possibly even assist you?

Thanks!

well think it's explained on the first page and also take a look at his website, there is a guide ! can't try it now, cause' i need to buy a bigger microsd card =(

The first page is a bit out of date with regard to the N900 progress that has been made.

The N900 guide there is referring to another guys earlier work.
