If you want to change the "look and feel" of your N810 in ways beyond just changing the wallpaper and theme, you might find the following to be of interest:

• The boot splash screens are in /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon/ with filenames qgn_indi_startup_nokia_logo.png (for the Nokia logo that is displayed first) and qgn_indi_nokia_hands.png (for the hands image displayed later). Back them up and replace them with your choice of 800x480 png image. The Internet Tablet Talk Forums[sic] have more details.
• You can customize the LED blink patterns and colors by editing /etc/mce/mce.ini. You can activate and deactivate patterns from within your own software by sending dbus events.
• If the ambient light sensor auto-dimming the display bothers you, you can turn it off by removing the filter-brightness-als module from the Modules= list in /etc/mce/mce.ini.
