For those of you who do have various emulators running on your N900, i’m sure you would’ve complained about sore thumbs after playing a few games.. The N900′s key just isn’t designed for gaming and definitely isn’t comfortable enough for hours on end of gaming.

Carbon Theme for the N900
Simplicity.. That is the easiest way to describe the Carbon theme for the Nokia N900, elegant yet straightforward.

Not many details are available for this theme, but it can be downloaded from the Maemo Repositories.
