The Nokia N900 is the most powerful device Nokia has ever created, and it’s built with Maemo software – which is completely open-source.
What’s cool about that is that it means the Nokia N900 can be taken apart and rebuilt, or modded into something entirely new – capable of doing things no device has ever done before.
And that’s what PUSH N900 MOD IN THE USA is about. It’s about uber-skilled designers, artists, hackers and modders creating objects we can’t even imagine.
We ran a global PUSH N900 challenge last year and were blown away by the ideas. But now it’s time for the US modders to represent. We’re heading to the CTIA Wireless event in Vegas and we’d like to take a few all-American hacks with us.
The challenge is the same: Connect the Nokia N900 to something you love. But this time the competition is open only to the 50 states.
A panel of judges will pick the three most impressive, novel and visually appealing ideas. Then the fun begins. We’ll record the teams’ creative process and support them as they bring your idea to life, eventually taking the finished hacks to Vegas – making both them and the work they’ve done famous along the way.
