Joikuspot for the Nokia N900 is going to be a must-have app when it comes out. If you’ve used Joikuspot on previous Nokia devices, then you might already know that it connects your laptop or other devices to the internet via WiFi using your mobile phone’s 3G connection. They’ve just released several screenshots for Maemo fans to preview. Check it out.

More photos are available at Joiku’s Facebook fan page.

Joikuspot is much easier to set up than tethering through bluetooth or a USB cable, but one setback is that it drains the battery faster than the other 2 solutions. However, I’ve used Joikuspot before in other Nokia phones and absolutely love it. I can’t wait for the Maemo version on the Nokia N900 to come out.

Update: Lasse Maki, CTO and Founder of Joikusoft just notified me that the launch schedule is within three weeks, just before Mobile World Congress. They are still doing additional testing & debugging.
