If they are moving away from Meego, why were the advertising Meego (N950) in the Transformers?

It was actually a misquote...

Elop was quoted to say that "the next major product from Nokia will be a disruptive device" whereas he actually said that "I will disrupt the next major product from Nokia, eh."

This is no analyst speculation. Any hope after that is just wishful thinking.
Mh... So, MeeGo just won't be the main platform for Nokia, even though N9 succeeds. This was the main debate at Nokia, and they decided to go WM.

Elop just says that the decision is final, they won't leave WM and switch the main Nokia smartphone OS to MeeGo even if the N9 is successful.

But it also means that MeeGo won't be killed off after N9, even if it would by some miracle flop totally.

It would not take a miracle for a step daughter product like Maemo / MeeGo to flop. Not unless you count lack of marketing, lack of distribution, and low production rate as a miracle.

No, but Quim Gill said on his blog that there wouldn't be any more Maemo/Meego at Nokia. It's over.

- If the Nokia N9 is successful will you ship more high-end smartphones powered either by MeeGo 1.2 Harmattan or a fully compliant MeeGo?

Since #feb11 Nokia has a clear software strategy where high-end smartphones are covered by the collaboration with Microsoft on Windows Phone, therefore the consequent answer is the one already given by Stephen Elop: No.

If a company acts so stupid, it deserves to go down. I feel sad for Nokia anyhow.

I hope you people realise Quim is just making a logical inference based on existing public evidence; he knows as much as anyone else here, which is to say very little.

You do realize that Quim works on Meego integration and Maemo/Meego devices at Nokia and he would know whether or not they're planning a N9 successor?

He's not some talk.maemo.org dude like you and I.
