a great point from Bijiont @ t.m.o: speaking of wiki, I am surprised the flashing instructions for each OS aren't a little more clear.
For example I don't see the "u" key mentioned on any of the OS instructions.
I know what some are saying "Then update it. . . it's a wiki anyone can do it". I would but I don't have a N900 nor first hand experience flashing only what I have read here at Maemo.org
Something which may be helpful would be to break down per device how to flash. I know this may sound "low tech" but maybe even include images for people who don't have a tech background.
I know I know, "Are you some kind of moron"? No I actually do a ton of programming so this isn't a request or suggestion from a low tech person but someone who almost spends more time commenting code than the actual code itself.
Code is only as good as the comments that tell you what a nest does.
