There will be a basic reference UI that, i'm guessing, is owned by Intel. There were screen shots released about a month ago. Nokia will have it's own Meego UI as well as any other manufacture that opts to use Meego on there device.

I assumed on the telephony stuff. But only assume. How do you know it uses it, and "other" things? I would really like to know more.

And no, the UI is not everything, but it's a lot for general users. And I don't see the Meego netbook UI being even close to adaptable for a 3.5 inch screen.

How would telephony be useful in a netbook?

WWAN/3G modem is one thing. But telephony?

The way i have understood is that Nokia's MeeGo will not have just different UI, but the middleware is different to Intels Meego too.

That's why Nokia's Harmattan/MeeGo is not even MeeGo product, but instance fo MeeGo.

MeeGo is modular. That's the reason why the first releases consisted in kernels and the such. I bet Nokia has been already working on its own UX with older builds, it's the only way they will be on time to release a device this year.

I think you answered your own question...with so many netbooks and laptops coming with GSM/3G/4G adapters, it makes sense to support telephony functions.

Plus you'll probably see Meego on more tablets/MIDs/whatever, in addition to car PCs (BMW) which may have phones built in.

A lot of the components below the UX layer are heavily contributed to by Nokia engineers and Nokia contractors.

There is a different Handheld interface that will be used for, well, handhelds. Also, you don't have to assume anything. It's all documented and h as been discussed at length on this forum.

That's not how i understood it but I could be wrong. I'm pretty sure both share the same code base.

Documentation is what I was after. And 'discussed in a forum' is not.
The chart offered above was helpful.
