They actually say why Meego isn't going to the N900 and it is.
"It’s really about ensuring that you have the best possible experience designed for the features on your Nokia N900 device."
So the best possible experience is to stop support, (not that there was any) and supply a phone which has millions of threads detailing the shortcomings. From hardware without software to the obvious lack of functionality.
YAY! Just sat playing around with my N900 and all of a sudden i spot an exclaimation mark. clicked it and it said Maemo update! its only my 5th day with the phone and they released PR1.2. I havent been too fussed about the update as im still excited about owning the N900, but now its here im like "YAY!"
has anyone tried logging into the new integrated Facebook chat? mine just keeps saying invalid username/password, if yours works, can you post the settings in the advanced section in case i accidentally changed something!
So... if I mention Vodafone UK (205) at this point, will you all point and laugh at me seeing as they've not even signed off on the last update yet?
Seriously, Voda - pull your fingers out, please?
Seriously man don't wait on voda, learn how to use the flasher 3.5 tool, (well worth doing anyway so you can rescue your n900 if ever anythimg goes wrong)
and flash to uk generic or global fw versions.
If you want to update your fw straight away use uk generic fw,
If you can wait a bit (tomorrow at the latest) then use the global fw.
Ironicaly, the reason i went to the global version was because i was worried that the uk would be the last to get the update again, i guess thats why they made the uk first this time.
Using the flasher 3.5 tool is something i would advise any n900 owner to learn how to do, there are lots of guides knocking around, and being able to flash the fw & doing regular backups makes moding your n900 and using extra's testing/devel and third party repo's much safer,
because you'll be able to recover from almost any disaster.
The hardest part i must add was then for 3 hours trying to type in my boot security code 'blind' to get it to boot to then get it into pc suite mode to take a backup!
