A bit about the Maemo operating system running the Nokia N900 smart phone. Maemo is a sophisticated linux orientated operating system which Nokia have used to power their Nokia N900 smart phone. Most likely we will see this operating system develop into over several different versions on the next generation Nokia’s like Google release new and improved Androids platforms.

One of the great aspects of the Maemo operating being linux based is that it is open source software. This allows the growing list of developer and the flowing community like with HTC followers. Their commitment for improvements and modifications to the Maemo software to help Maemo users with their user experience. Also to help Nokia to effectively improve its operating system as to the mass user requirement. Giving what people want. Not what you think they might need.

It’s the openness of the being a linux based systems that attract many users. As applications and tweaks are developed by people that love the handset. They want to share their ideas and developments that they develop for themselves and bring that software update or application freely for others to enjoy.

Its not just about the Nokia developers in a lab its about the followers who Nokia is freely welcoming to explore and modify the Maemo system in search of bettering the users experience with the hardware of the phone. Just look at the iPhone developers communities out there on the web. Many applications are added to the ever growing apps store. That’s what Nokia is out to achieve. It has provided the basics. Now it’s looking for the out in to the developer’s community for feedback.
