Hallo

How about Maemo/Meegoo has anyone tried compiling QGIS on Nokia 900.

One impotant thing to think about when discussing Mobile GIS is whatdisplay technique is used on different devices. We have tryied to runArcPad on devices with capasitive displayes and that is good forlooking at data, but you can never digitize on the screen. Then youwill need a resisitive screen and a stylus. I don't know about Androiddevices but many windows devices are now using the capasitive techniquebecause it is  smoother when just looking in your calender and so on. Ithink tkis makes Nokia 900 with Maemo 5 very interesting because it hasa resistive touchscreen among many other features. I think the hardwarelso supports multi touch.
I am myself a happy N900 user, but one of the reasons I bought it was to get a potent GIS software into it :-)
