I'm waiting on Nokia to stop taking a hot, steamy dump on us Maemo fans first.
Doubtful Harmattan, without services in place that folks truly want, will take a dump on anything but it's own progress.
Simply stated, new Maemo doesn't always mean it'll be better.
true true...
if they planned this device similar to older models (one device one OS) this is almost as a vapoware.
they have to be more consistent with the future disruption keep on progressing the same os on different hardwares with new features and functions, which means maturing an OS not what they have done in the past, make one OS and divert all the resources for another OS for new device.
Until that last part, I had a "I don't believe that dude at all" rant ready to be unleashed.
you dont need to believe him or anybody else... only time will tell... and meanwhile we can have lots of fun with our imagination...
e.g.: i dont believe that the device will get TouchSense, diamond coating or gesture control, but hey, everything here is a rumor, so what, lets have some fun here as long as we are holding our new lovely baby in our hands... and if all this really comes true (nearly impossible imho) we all can say "we knew it before"
there was a rumor before we knew that their would be two devices, that the "dev" device could possible come in silver and black, but thats history now... so black is the color, maybe, if they sell billions of it, we will see a white version with an antenna bug... oh, sorry, that was another company
P.S.:
my post, my post, my post... the ring.. ähm... post is mine....
umm, do you have an fcc filing that states otherwise. seriously how the **** is this happening? can someone explain to me how the hearsay trumps government test documentation! comeon HOW is it history when its the ONLY device thats shown up on the FCC. not saying there arent two, im just saying theres proof for one of them and its not the slate ...

if we have very few luck this will be the last maemo/meego phone. but i believe that they will still bring a phone with maemo/meego, maybe once a year. if elop is believeing in his own words (and dont lying) then there is still a place for meego at nokia. and it also differs from the future of symbian. at 11.2. elops has shown a chart where symbian will be replaced with wp7, but in the end there is still some spce for meego, so i still hope that we will see another phone maybe next year

The iPhone exists but its FCC filing does not appear till after announcement. Do you not realise that Nokia can ask FCC to hide the filing ? The keyboard phone is not coming out so it doesn't make a difference if the FCC filing is shown.
