Maemo-Guru Mobile Website

Ricky Cadden, the Symbian Guru, has expanded his coverage to include Nokia's newest smartphone platform with the launch of Maemo-Guru.com. Of course Maemo itself isn't new having been used in the Nokia N770, N800 and N810 Internet tablets.  But those were not phones. The next iteration of Maemo devices, the N900, is. With its 3.5 inch touchscren, WiFi AND 3G radios, slide out QWERY keyboard, huge amount of memory and a Mozilla based browser with Flash support N900 is positioned as Nokia's flagship handset.

Ricky is no stranger to Maemo, having previously published Tablet-Guru which he shut down after about a year citing Nokia's apparent lack of enthusiasm for the platform.  The N900 changes everything and it seems like a great time to bring back Tablet-Guru, complete with an updated name reflecting that Maemo is not just for tablets anymore.

The N900 is an exciting device and I'm looking on getting my hands on one, especially as it supports my operator of choice, T-Mobile USA's, oddball 3G bands.  Nokia's first Maemo smartphone is going to be a hot topic in the coming weeks and months.  I'm counting on  Ricky and Maemo-Guru editor Rita El Khoury (dotsisx) to give us some first hand impressions of the N900 hardware and software.

The mobile edition of Maemo-Guru is created using WordPress Mobile Pack which does a great job of making the site usable with any mobile browser.
