It really depends on what you're doing.
Estel's image is the most "rounded" one when it comes to beginner friendlyness due to the software it already includes, but all the images at qole.org suffer from being heavily outdated.
For example iceweasel in squeeze hasn't received any updates since december 2012 (the backports have version 10.0.12 but that's not really better). I haven't checked the implications of that, but I wouldn't use iceweasel from squeeze for online banking or any other stuff that requires me to login somewhere.
I tried to adress this by uploading a minimal wheezy-based image some posts ago [2], but as I've seen just now the link is dead.
I will upload an updated before easter, maybe this evening (CEST), maybe tomorrow.*
I also included instructions that are hopefully detailed enough to reproduce my work. So if you have any decent armel/hf machine (> Raspberry PI; in which case you'll likely have some slightly advanced knowledge about debian) you could build your own image as well.
*) I'd appreciate hint's on any sharehosters that don't essentially require me to add an nsfw warning to my link due to their advertising.
Otherwise I'm considering on signing up at linuxtracker.org, in which case you'd have to bear with my quite stable but slow connection.

I've just uploaded an updated version of my minimal Wheezy/armhf image. [1]
The md5sums are as follows:
Apart from updating the packages there is no change compared to the previous one, so there's no need for you to switch if you've keept the last one up to date.
And as always: If you feel like mirroring this image on your own webspace, feel free to do that! In fact I'd be grateful.
@FlashInTheNight86:
In case you use kernel power [2] (required for armhf) you can use this image, install iceweasel and libreoffice on your own and you should be ready to go.

I can't reproduce this, but your prompt looks funny.
Can you give more details please?
Where does your shell come from? Is it from within LXDE or via debbie?
Also I'd like to see the output of mount from Maemo.
May your image be corrupted?
Edit:
Was this your first attempt to install something in this image?

I don't have my N900 at hand now, but iirc there's a group 'cron' or 'crontab' with the gid 102 in the image's /etc/group.
It doesn't cause any problems for me, but it might still be a bad idea to have it there. If removing this entry solves your problem, please let me know and I'll upload another image with the group removed.
As for your prompt, I believe the problem might be that Easy Debian by default bind-mounts Maemo's /home/user into the image. I consider this to be a bad idea since it messes Maemo's home up with stuff that doesn't belong there.
Therefore I've disabled this bind-mount long time ago and I honestly can't say what happens if it's still there.
I'll give it a try though and see if I can fix it.
