Downloads for Maemo 5, as used in the Nokia N900, are now available from maemo.org. The listings are applications that are in the Extras repository and have passed the community QA testing queue. Each download is listed with a short description and screenshot. The applications available include OM Weather (developer interview), gPodder, a Countdown widget, Tuner and Rfk.

At the time of writing 9 downloads were available, but this number should rise quickly now that the final SDK has arrived and market availability of the N900 is imminent. Here's a quick overview of three of the listed applications.
