I think the only earth-shattering or really "exciting" news for N900 users - and one that could realistically be done - is Nokia backing off from the "we won't officially support Meego on the N900" to "N900 will have full Meego support". Why?
  1. It does not seem so expensive to do. Meego is currently used as a developing platform for Meego, anyways. You would have some logistical costs and some stuff to be done - like a porting guide from Maemo to Meego - but compared to other alternatives, like doubling efforts by developing Ovi Maps 3.0 to Meego and Maemo, seems quite viable.
  2. It would actually revert some of Nokia bad press. It was big news when they said they wouldn't support Meego officially on the N900.
  3. Other things would naturally follow, like Flash 10.1. It is quite improbable that Nokia would not bring Flash 10 to the Meego platform! Ovi Maps 3.0 for meego too, with unified Qt development. And other software stuff that they wouldn't have to backport - or program at all - to Maemo.
  4. If Meego is actually considered a Maemo upgrade, they are not really supposed to keep making Maemo OS updates like PR1.3 and such. They can just do Meego updates and be happy with it.

Ok, all things considered, Nokia is bad at delivering, so I think this announcement will be nothing really worthwhile. But it was fun to think like Nokia management had a rational mind.

They will publish the good news that "the more exciting news are coming next month" which would be then delayed by 2 or more weeks.

but yeh, I'm satisfied with my n900.

Saw the garage page. So, it's an API. So, it's not an application per se, although it seems to come with a sample 'fcamera' application.

If that is it, that would still be epic. An epic failure to deliver. lol
