Anyhoo, fun to see those devices. Brings back memories of maemo 4 times gone by.
But we were clearly and repeatedly told that Maemo 5 was MORE open-source than Maemo 4, that MeeGo was PURE OPEN-SOURCE, and I thought we were clarified that the N9's Harmattan OS wasn't really MeeGo but rather just Maemo with MeeGo-like bits and bobs. Is there something you know that we weren't told or that we can't tell from looking around?
