Naw... just used pseudo-curse words to keep things entertaining... not mad at all.

I never said anything of the sort, & if it came across that way it certainly wasn't intentional.
Never came across like that. I did point fingers at the other N900 microUSB folks.

Regardless... you leave, this site loses a resource. I can admit that.

And hence Meltemi In the end, I end up purchasing whatever I find cool regardless of manufacturer or OS. The coolest right now is the 808, and if Asus/Google can cook together a nice cheap 7" tablet running "native" Android, I will be very happy. I do however see rumors of a Nokia 10" WP8 tablet, but 10" is too large anyway and I am not too sure about WP8 (it seems better suited for grandmas than a slightly geeky person like myself).

A cheap Meltemi phone is a must anyway. Tizen? So far I have not seen any single thing of interest, but that may of course change.

I think you will love it. But you are right. It's too early to tell. I find everything that is not android, IOS or windows interesting but it seems that we differ on that point.

Don't hang on the past too much.

And being a "real" Linux OS, noone forbids user community to bring QtQuick to Tizen system and extra rpm-repositories which support Qt-applications if for example Samsung+Huawei's official repositories only support HTML5-applications.

Meltemi may be just a Microsoft's (remember Elop) plan to fragmentate Linux ecosystem even more than it already is.

...no wonder, killing Meego by affecting Nokia was an ingenious move for MS.

webgl? really? you want performance of a pentium 3 computer on yout i7/bulldozer/whatever and hd7970/580?

all those that support web apps are the ones that are trying to push us into past, not us normal people who want native apps

Think this is a fantasy..as long as Elop is at the top.
But still going along with the fantasy, what make Nokia phones so popular is their longevity and removable battery. I still have an N95 and an old 6610. I love my N900 too. With N9 this feature is broken. Battery dies and phone is dead too.

So, put in removable battery and N8's camera..and guarantee not to ditch the platform and i am game for more Meego-ness. Actually would prefer a Maemo-like OS.

I'm not talking about performance. I'm talking about the html5, and how very ill-adapted it is for making GUI's.

A Tizen example:

HTML Code:
<ul data-role="swipelist">
    <li class="ui-li-1line-leftsub1 ui-li-dialogue">
        <div data-role="button" data-inline="true">Twitter</div>
        <div data-role="button" data-inline="true">Twitter</div>
        <div data-role="button" data-inline="true">Facebook</div>
        <div data-role="button" data-inline="true">Facebook</div>
        <div data-role="swipelist-item-cover">
            <div style="display: inline-block;" class="ui-li-text-sub-left">subtext</div>
            <div style="display: inline-block;" class="ui-li-text-main-right">1line-leftsub1</div>
        </div>
    </li>
</ul>
Srsly?.. This is UGLY. HTML is for text, not for GUI's. And the WHATWG/W3C decided in all their wisdom that XML with namespaces was... too appropriate for this? As a webdeveloper I honestly cannot begin to comprehend what in NULL's name they were thinking.

To put some extra salt on the wounds, javascript is a horrible, horrible language. OK for some basic UI stuff, but for bigger projects it really is a developer's nightmare compared to Java/C++/Qt/C#.

In fact, this utter "html5" and other webtech craziness is part of why I changed jobs very recently. The ecosystem and development tools are abysmal in quality. I just couldn't stand it anymore, and it only gets worse.

Even if it runs on a normal Linux kernel and you can add Qt yourself, if it is not a first class citizen the support will be lacking, leading to compatibility issues and worse.

Expecting a "Tizen-Note" from Samsung would be more practical & promising..
