As many said that N9 is not really Meego but Nokia's Maemo which able to run Meego applications. so can it be that there will be no "another" Meego device(s) but one(s) with Maemo 7,8 ,9 ..? I'm getting confused about harmattan and meego, please if someone can explain.


nvm found an answer to my question:
Meego and Harmattan: Clearing a path

if they are still around, could the 5 NOKIA employees confirm they are still working on a "N10"?

thanks, but no thanks ;)

why would they invest in MeeGo developing if no Linux phone would come?

We will se MeeGo Handset devices in the future - from manufacturers like LG. But not from Nokia, which has been paid an extremely large sum of mony to dump everything they had.

For some bizarre they had commited themselves for release the N9 - I have no idea what the hell the N950 is good for, for Nokia.

Maybe, if Windows Phone completely fails.

maybe the question shouldn't be whether wp will fail, but how quickly.

the only reason why m@ke$$h!t, oups, sorry, m$, of course, is where it is now is because 30 yrs ago, there was a vacuum that the company could fill.
this is not the case (any more) in the mobile phone area, not even in the smart phone market.
thus m$ will fail, as miserably as its products are crappy.
if NOKIA's management realises this quickly enough, they may have time to (re-)commit to MeeGo.
neither iPotatos nor android needed five years to establish themselves, did they?
and even though iPotatos mostly owe their success to a phenomenal sales (Steve) Job(s), android hardly had anything but being free and backed by a "stable" company going for it.
both of which MeeGo has too by now

so long and thanks for all the fish NOKIA

I keep hoping Nokia will change their mind and either do at least a small volume production run of the N950 or an improved N960 or N990 or something like that. Swan-song cadillac super flagship with the N8 camera and flash in that sexay aluminum body. Bonus points if they bring back the N900 stylus, IR, notification light, and lens cover/aluminum battery cover with a BP-4L battery under it.

I can dream.

What constitutes a failure?

the definition of a failure obviously depends on whom you ask.

for us, here, on TMO, the simple fact NOT to let the N9 run its course and supply, even sluggishly the devices to all markets which show interest is a failure.
for the NOKIA board, it seems to be an acceptable collateral.

we will have to wait & see when the board feels that 'nough is 'nough....
further drop in share value?
accelerated drop in Symbian sales?
total Flop of the W device/s, by the end of the year, beginning of next year?
