One of my concerns about Meego is the DRM "security" layer built into the platform.
It really depends how far they are willing to lock-down the handset (at the request of mobile operators).

That's fine, but not everybody is in the know or wants to be in the know about everything under the sun. Many of us have non-computer-related day jobs, and other interests beside computing. We just want something that works (I don't want closed stuff from Apple though) or requires minimal tweaking. Why can't Nokia offer a simple copy-paste solution? Do you think consumers would embrace this device that only computer geeks can love? (Judging from the fact that they had to dump the remaining N900, I guess not.)

All things are relative. Some people like to hack, some don't. I like it, but not too much. BTW I am probably the only person in my work place (a university division with hundreds of staff) that tries to use a N900 (I also have N770, N800, N810, TC1100, Q1UP, HP200, Psion3, etc). If I am lazy, I guess all those non-N900 people in the world are even lazier. Try tell it to the users who made Apple such a commercial success that your (and my) Nokia can only envy.
