How big is the device compared to the N900? I know it is (much) thinner but how much wider/ longer?
I think the N900 is the perfect size in length and width. It only needs a bigger 4 inch screen which can fit easily in the N900 if the bezels on both sides (in landscape mode) are smaller.

Also nice to hear there are no buttons on the front. Another unique feature of the N900. Gives it a very clean look.

portrait support good like symbian.

This I have called incompetence.

this...replacement...meant to be Meego....

I think someone should point to ELOP and the rest of CEO pigs, what ecosystem really means:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecosystem

The continuous misuse of the term is disgusting.

To Elop and others: Why do you say ecosystem, when you really mean vendor lock-in.

For what its worth, I also know (quite positively) the device exists and it has a great hardware - it has been heavily implied to me by official Israeli Nokia representatives, but thats as far as they went

He's not really misusing it if you look up the definition on somewhere other than the Worlds Most accurate site source.

Not saying Wiki is wrong but just take a look at a less complex explanation of a Ecosystem

After being a bit negative today how about this:

Progress update on Meego for N900 I think its a bit related to the new rumored device:

* We now have an cool new meego-terminal (by Nokians) in for N900 soon to be merged to MeegoDE image. I guess this is a terminal we will see in Harmattan too.

and also little new info twitted by Jukkaeklund:

http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/N900/Summer_Release

The OSS team inside Nokia is still rocks :-D (And ofcourse the rest of the Meego community)

You mean the part where we are living organisms living in it, being dependant on their services.

Let me state this clearly I dislike the idea of vendor lock-in even if it comes from google
