Re: IMO, MeeGo will be a tragedy on smartphone market like Maemo!

FWIW, I fully agree and want the openness that comes with Meego and I fully support the development effort.

I also think that things need to be discussed.

Don't get mad at me for bringing...

Re: IMO, MeeGo will be a tragedy on smartphone market like Maemo!

So not even the "platform" is complete.

So, Meego 1.2, to be released in April, 2011, will be installable by a common user and runnable without dual booting, on an N900 and suitable for everyday...

Right. N900 not supported either.

That strategy isn't to help the end use, though it may because they might actually be happy seeing a piece of software that does something, rather than a bunch of promises for a piece of future...

Thank you for that. The first step to dealing with a situation is to correctly identify where you are at.

Re: IMO, MeeGo will be a tragedy on smartphone market like Maemo!

Yes, except when you ask to try to run the N900 image, people say its not ready. So all we can do is sit on the outside and watch. That isn't open to me. Heck, the N900 image didn't even get...

Re: IMO, MeeGo will be a tragedy on smartphone market like Maemo!

a) Then ship it ! Ship early, ship often !

b) It is not "good to go". The testers running Meego 1.1 are plagued with issues. That is why there is no release.

It is very apparent you don't...

Re: IMO, MeeGo will be a tragedy on smartphone market like Maemo!

The most apparent thing in all this is that Nokia can't "do" software. It can't plan it, it can't develop it and it can't support it. Nokia is a hardware company.

There isn't any reason for...

Re: Meego 1.1 RC?

It takes about 10x the effort to chase a market and gain market share after the leader(s) have been established versus to lead the market with the new offering.

Re: How/where do I set up an APN connection ?

It doesn't. See my post above.

Yes, I did try that. The edit there does not allow APN type information to be changed.

Is there a APN config file somewhere that I could manually edit ?
