All those damn probadly utrue rumors that make people think that it is nokias statements...
have people here ever tried the codedrops of meego for n900? its faaar from ready and probadly not in october. dont expect this as a replacement of maemo5 on n900.
yes it will come unofficial for n900 but it will probadly lack alot of core features.
ofcourse its great for geeks but not as a main os
but hopefully we soon get qtmobility "officially" on n900 that way we atleast "insync" with N8 and hopefully many apps on n8 will work on n900

I think if Nokia being a bit more clever and released this to all N900 before the release of the official N9 then it would be a WIN WIN.
Even they make it work for the N900, the N9 will sell like a hot cake if people who owned an N900 or anyone experience the beneficial of the new MeeGo. At the same time they will be able to do a free bugs testing by the community of people and report back any bugs found in the release and solve it in the final release of their new high end device.
It makes both parties happy. Both consumer and Developers can start working on the application on the release of N900 then get it ready for the MeegO N9. Even Nokia will benefiting from this.
But I don't think Nokia seeing this as an opportunity at all.

Calling a release plan published by meego.com / The Linux Foundation a rumor? Sorry, canīt follow you here...

Ahh always one guy ready to see the turd in the punchbowl.
What you have to keep in mind is the interface is just one part of MeeGo. The underlying OS is the real key. If thats good then the UX is really just sugar coating.
Anyone who wanted to to work with "the real key" - the OS - can do that now, today, but most people will be interested in the UI, hence my post. It's called expectation management.

Think about it this way - when Linus or whoever releases the newest Linux kernel, how useful is it, on it's own, without integration into actual Linux distributions ? MeeGo is of course an OS, not just the kernel, but in a similar position - while not useless, pretty far from the 'experience' the end users will meet it in actual products using it.
Why would meego.com / The Linux Foundation release an useless OS version labeled RTM / GA and totally destroy its reputation right from the start?

But, the release date of a market ready version shows that the next steps are close, be it the N9, a community build meego for N900 or whatever...

Will it be possible to port the tablet version to the N900? I would like that!
If I've helped you or you use any of my packages feel free to help me out.
