Nokia N900 shipping today. World say hello to Maemo.
The wait is over. The much desired Nokia N900 Maemo smartphone will be shipping today. With features ranging from a Linux-based operating system and an A8 superscalar microprocessor core running at 600 MHz to Adobe Flash 9.4 support and ..what else but the Maemo browser powered by Mozilla technology, Nokia N900 will definitively blow your mind. Along with these super-features Nokia N900 comes with a lot more features that make it one of the most (if not the most) desired mobile device in 2009.
Maemo is an advanced Linux-based operating system designed to run on high-end Nokia mobile computers. As this is an open-source platform, it enables the Maemo community to freely modify and continually develop software as part of a shared goal: to bring added value to all Maemo users.
The Maemo Platform is supported by the Maemo Community which consists of more than 18.000 members actively contributing to more than 800 development projects. Apart from the Linux Kernel, Maemo is based on a lot of open source projects including Debian and GNOME.
Here is a Nokia N900 unboxing video.
