And who are the purveyors of this pessimism? I find your post to be somewhat ironic.

I find your post to be somewhat sad. It's like a smiling clownface covering a crying tramp. :)

I do also find your posts, recent ones in this thread, a bit contradictory also. You posted a message lambasting people whining, and then proceeded to go into a full on rant about how the N900 was not what you wanted.

?

It isn't irony if I didn't waste my money on it. I'm still waiting to see if they'll make a better tablet before I move up from the N800, or at LEAST a better more computer-like handset instead of yet another me-too "smartphone".

Quim just twittered a link. Nokia is hiring. They want an UX designer for MeeGo.

Doesn't sound like they are scrapping MeeGo completely just yet.

That's at least promising to hear, amidst all the rest of the bad news. Any news/announcements about when they intend to release or at least announce something we can buy? Otherwise, there isn't a whole lot of good news or progress for Meamo/MeeGo coming out of Nokia lately. Wasn't there supposed to be some kind of Nokia show soon?

Ok, point taken.

I'm not about to start preaching to the non-converted here. I'm sure you have done so.....but I gotta ask this question. Have you ever used an N900?

Stephen Elop, Nokia CEO, is expected to unveil Nokia’s new company strategy on Friday February 11, at a Nokia Strategy and Financial Briefing in London.

That's when bloggers expect Elop to do anti-Symbian things. Which will probably not be good for the Qt symbiosis with "our" two platforms.

That's all I know. More than I know.
