I’ve heard it can be used as a wiimote: how do I do that?

Will n900 play games from big companies?

What if I want a game not yet available?

See above (where do I get software from)

All my previous phones have run java games: why can’t I play them on n900?

Java is not currently available for the N900. You can follow the discussion here
