Hi,

>From the site http://www.maemo.org/:

Maemo Platform Overview

Maemo is a development platform to create applications for the Nokia 770 
Internet Tablet and other maemo compliant handheld devices. It is meant 
for developers with personal or commercial interests in developing 
software for handhelds like Internet Tablets. The software and developer 
community website is contributed to this audience and operated by Nokia. 
The platform is composed of popular open source software components, 
which are widely deployed in the leading Linux desktop distributions 
today. Maemo adapts these components to the handheld environment and 
contributes new technologies.

It looks interesting to me, so I have a couple of questions:
- does anybody already have experience with it?
- what are competing products that I should consider before 
  buying it? (Sharp Zaurus,...)
- can I replace the standard software with openSUSE 10?
- I live in the Netherlands, where to buy it for a low price?

Have a nice day,

Aschwin Marsman
