WebGL show off on N900
Giles Thomas from learningwebgl.com collected a few WebGL demos, which are actually working on N900. Since PR 1.2 the N900 is supporting WebGL without some extra tools.

I’ve spent a while playing with WebGL on the Nokia N900 smartphone.
It sounds like its inclusion in the 1.2 release of the phone’s firmware (which happened last week) was a surprise to the Mozilla team, which would explain why we’ve not seem any publicity…
So, given that the developers don’t think it’s ready for prime time yet, and that the WebGL standard isn’t at 1.0 yet, and no-one’s been testing their demos on anything apart from desktop machines, it’s surprising that it works at all, and astonishing that it works as well as it does :-)
i've tested a few of this demos and i'm pretty amazed what the N900 is capable of :-)
"WebGL, which is sometimes considered part of the upcoming HTML5 standard, lets web pages do hardware-accelerated 3D graphics. Special developer versions of Firefox, Safari and Chrome support it, and (much to the Firefox team's surprise) this functionality has made it into the N900's firmware already."

here is the list of demos he tested on N900:
- - A spinning WebGL cube
- - Vladimir Vukićević’s Spore creature viewer
- - Brandon Jones enhanced Spore viewer
- - Particle explosions
- - Google’s shiny teapot demo
- - Google’s San Angeles demo
- - Google’s particle demo
- - My first Mandelbrot demo
- - Lesson 9: Merry Christmas
- - Lesson 10.5: nano-doom with lighting
- - Lesson 14: per-pixel teapot with specular highlights
- - Lesson 16: render-to-texture
- - Pl4n3’s single-file skeletal animation
- - Ilmari Heikkinen’s whale
- - Pavlos Toukiloglou’s Copperlicht-based Match 3D game.
- - Evgeny Demidov’s interference patterns.
- - CopperLicht’s Quake demo
