It's great you are. I'm not going to bash you for it being enough for your use.

But imo this device should prove Nokia can still be top in the game like they where 3-4 years ago. Plus i want that HDMI out that can push 1080. There's plenty of phones out for that already.

1080p output is nice indeed, that would be the only downside (for me). but maybe by adding a strong gpu there is still the possibility of having one core cpu and 1080p output. i thing broadcom has a nice gpu which can handle 1080p.

EDIT: i mean this one Broadcom BCM2763

Untrue, apple makes sure their latest iOS support at least two latest devices (e.g. iphone 3gs + iphone 4).
See more at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_iOS_devices
In reality this means the users of previous generation are not left out which happens regularly with nokia.

and if, on top of that, the smartphones in question use the same CPU architecture then the servers (Intel) and it is possible to distribute literally the same OS on all devices, that makes for economies of scales no company would want to miss.
or not have a part in, no?
Where did you get this idea? Let me give you an example:
Remember Java slogan "Run once execute everywhere", well it is simply marketing over-simplification. I don't see how server and phone architecture relate to provide sam OS on all devices.

If someone should care, its Nokia.

Nokia has been taking alot of fire for the past years for that inability to keep up technologically(N97,N8). If Nokia will push this phone big time into the market without having decent specs to be proud about, no shiny UI will save them. Especially if they'll price it at the top.

If Nokia didnt understand that they need a powerful machine in order to ride all the critics out then i foresee a very dark future for Nokia.

Just for the record, I dont care about the specs...if i feel that the pricing matching it, i might buy. However, If Nokia aim in expending their meego user base(i am not quite sure they do) they will fail.

ITS ALL ABOUT IMAGE

It will not given that chance, simply because the deal with Microsoft...

I would be suprised if there is a deal between Microsoft and Nokia how many Meego phones theyr are allowed to sell...

Just look at the PC market how dominant Microsoft is there. There is no company who sells Linux computers today.

Just another example: HP planed to have WebOS(Linuxbased) on stationary computers but only on top of already installed Windows

Lets see how that goes. I'd like this to be successful. But that decision is not in my hands lol
