Thanks Luz.
I will be quite relieved if Nokia announces a Meego successor to the n900 that's built along the same lines - as much GPL code as possible.. no DRM garbage.. no restrictions.. full libc, GNU toolchain, X11..
The n900 is the best electronic device I've owned in the last 10 years (as a Unix admin) and my worst nightmare is that they abandon the concept like Sharp did with the Zaurus.

It is not a replacement. It is a successor.

Is it just me or do I see no actual reason to believe any of this? No leaked screenshots, no mysterious devices being found in bars or anything else, just two men and their unfounded rumours. I'd take this 'news' with a pinch of salt.

The true Nokia N900 successor, the first Nokia MeeGo phone, is likely to feature a 10-megapixel camera and a capacitive touchscreen, say the latest reports.
Thought this may be of interest!! Not really any definate news...
