OS2008 on N800: probable bugs
After a bit more testing I found out: - when selecting a wifi connection the list refreshes and moves all the time: in a street in Paris with about 50 signals it's nearly impossible to select something down the list, refresh sends cursor back to beginning of list every second or so (Searching never goes away). - I'm not able to activate the virtual finger keyboard using my finger: internet search, web browser, application manager (forms), xterm input areas when thumb pressed seem to always show the virtual stylet keyboard. Only notes seems to detect properly a finger touch within its (larger) input area and opens the finger keyboard. - I've had three times after selecting lock touch screen in keys where after pressing power and seeing now press HOME the HOME button was inactive and I had to remove the battery or shutdown through remote ssh. This is with unmodified systemui.xml. I'll open bugzilla if I'm not alone in seeing this.

Only notes seems to detect properly a finger touch within its (larger) input area and opens the finger keyboard. Definitely verified. Pushing the square navigation button pops up the fatfinger keyboard. - I've had three times after selecting lock touch screen in keys where after pressing power and seeing now press HOME the HOME button was inactive and I had to remove the battery or shutdown through remote ssh.

Re: OS2008 on N800: probable bugs
Thanks to all who answered in public or privately. For connection selection in crowded wifi, it's the scrollbar that's unusable, using up and down pad is kinda okay. Situation is not that great but it might now warrant a bugzilla. Same thing for virtual finger, Home button is a good workaround at least on N800. For the third problem even if there's a workaround that worked at least once (wait until screen is off) I got into a situation where I was unlocked but all the physical buttons (pad, home, the three buttons, +/-/full size) where not doing anything whereas power and stylus+thumb where still working perfectly.

That's bad, I will forward this to our UI specialists. Please also file a bug about this, if you have the time. It makes things a lot easier. Now I just need to convince my boss that we need to personally go to Paris to test this.
