at least apple give their products early. great marketing


The earliest iPhone 4 preorders were supposed to arrive Thursday, the first day the device is available to the general public. Earlier it was reported that some Apple customers have begun receiving notification that their iPhone 4 may arrive a day early, Wednesday. But some have clearly started arriving even earlier than that.

feltbuss, let me just say that you are comparing open source development (publishing of the Handset UX code during the MeeGo 1.1 development process) with a commercial product launch.

Is your implicit suggestion that having a vendor selling MeeGo handsets few days after the Handset UX publishing would be 'good marketing'? In my eyes that would be a disaster for the credibility of MeeGo as an open platform for any device vendors.

Actually it took Apple about 3 months to release new iPhone after showcasing the iOS 4, which would at least be somehwat comparable to Meego handset UX release.

heck, apple would probably have loved to wait until the day of shipping to announce, if they didnt need a certification from FCC. And all those certifications are made publicly available, tho one can apply for a delay in publication.

BTW, just in case anyone missed qgil's explanation, it is here:
http://forum.meego.com/showpost.php?p=4042&postcount=16
The mistake was to publish that content in meego.com and at that point of time. The deletion was a fix to that mistake. Even if the page is cached or saved, now it is not in meego.com.

read his "explanation", it still answers nothing at the moment.

interesting, it seems the browser will be fennec based, not webkit based.

or maybe i read it wrong, could it be that it will have fennec available from day one, alongside the built in webkit browser?
