How can I find the maximum resolution, processor type and RAM capacity of my device in Maemo?

It's a full linux system, so in an xterm you can:

# cat /proc/cpuinfo
# cat /proc/meminfo

For the resolution, it's 800x480. But xdpyinfo doesn't exist on the system so I think you need to look in the X log file to get it.

Can I compile for example FFMPEG there !?

Well, you can. I'm not sure why you'd want to since 'apt-cache search ffmpeg' shows me someone else already has!

There is, but I haven't tried it, a compiler that you can put on the device itself. I tend to compile on my desktop when compiling for the N900 and the transferring the results there (via scp to it).

You might want to check out Conky. It's a really nice and useful system metrics vizualisation app for Maemo.
