havent try the OTG yet...
kinda weird... series 40 with OTG...
It's weird alright and also pour fuel on fire with the Maemo users.
If S40 series phone have OTG have can't Maemo(official) team add official version of OTG for the Maemo5?
The HEN team already proven that N900 is capable of OTG function(I managed to connect my 500GB ext. HD also)

@aspire: With working Garmin, N8 (or any Symbian phone for that matter) pwns N900 or even N9 (or ANY phones lol, except WM6), unless Papago gets made for Meego or Nokia shocks us all and gives us a working Symbian emulation layer on Meego (aka, run Symbian apps on Meego yeah).
And I stay by my initial view that the N900 is NOT the best primary telephony device around (aka, as a phone, I'll take a Symbian device any time as it has better phone functions) - it's the BEST at Internet Consumption though, with no real rivals at all (except for that little flash 10 problem and almost-as-bad-as-desire battery life). Email is arguably slight better on newer Symbian devices PRIMARILY because push mail actually works (the N900 mail app FAILS at connecting to the internet itself to pull mail if you're not running a constant data connection - it pulls every time you connect to packet data ONLY), but the N900 displays email better for sure.
But if you need one device and need it to surf the web a lot and call people less (and have an extra battery/USB charger), for now the N900 is STILL NO.1 in my book. A shame nobody else has taken the crown from it yet.
In short, I STILL think the N900 SUCKS as a "smartphone", but RULES (for now) as a "computer with bonus phone functions".
@jananan: X2 has OTG? For the love of...
As far as I know there is no Symbian emulator in MeeGo.
For now the dev team is only encourage other developers to write app in MeeGo & try it out on Maemo.I think this is to test the QT adaptability?
We all know Maemo 5 phone support sucks.It's fixable with additional software updates.But will Nokia give it?I don't think so.
But it's true that no other phone integrate internet functions as well as N900.The conversation with build in IM,excellent browser & plenty other supports by Maemo community really makes this device unbeatable in internet tablet area.

how the camera of n8 perform?but seems like a lot complain at n8 thread....

As usual Nokia screwed up a bit on the firmware part.
Plus the "no taking out battery" policy from Nokia making users hard to revive dead phones.
Majority of the users saying the default browsers sucks.I say it's not bad.
