All Nokia N900 owners I’ve met love their stellar smartphone. Let’s face it – the user interface is not on par with what the iOS and Android-based smartphones are offering, but the N900 is more hackable than any other handset on the market.
That said, we’re glad to report that someone managed to port Android 2.3 Gingerbread to Nokia’s last Maemo baby. That someone is Russian coder Alexey Roslyakov, who is better known under the nickname DrunkDebugger.
The sad news is that you can’t install Gingerbread on your N900 right now. However, you will be able to do that in less than a week when the software is completely optimized to sing along N900′s hardware. At the moment, Gingerbread can work with sound, cellular and WiFi connectivity with the rest being in development as we speak.
And if that’s too experimental for you, there’s the Android 2.2.1 Froyo port which should be available within next few days…

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
