They saw the writing on the wall. Symbian is going mid-low end, which is a market where most people won't even know what Symbian is. The N97 probably didn't help matters either.

I'm hoping for a stable platform with Meego. Although I have no intent on buying the first 2 Meego phones by Nokia. Android is a safe market in the mean time and I'll probably revert the N900 to an offline pocket tablet.

So come on Nokia, deliver us a solid platform. You've already got my money on the N900 (not much to complain about here), but you won't get my money until you can prove that Meego can deliver. Even then I'll probably go the Intel route just for the x86 compat.
