Great news indeed, but I'm curious how this melts down when MeeGo for sure in great deal is an Intel project. I mean, isn't it strange that AMD doesn't find that conflicting when they announce that they will jump on the MeeGo boat?
Maybe it's just the hardware part that they are going to support, drivers and stuff for their specific cpu's.
Where is TI standing in all this by the way?

I really hope MeeGo will be a great competitor to Android, ios and the upcoming Windows Phone 7. In my opinion MeeGo has the most promising and convenient development suite of them all. It's native C++ with Qt, but that probably also means the Python Qt bindings. Everything in a very nice IDE.
Would I ever buy a netbook, it will probably be one with MeeGo, and if I will ever trade my N900 for something more fancy it will probably be some internet tablet with MeeGo, for me it depends on how the N9 will "feel".
But let's see how it all unfolds, as of now it looks pretty immature.
