yeah, I'm not big on the social networking thing.( No facebook,myspace, or twitter) but heavy into rss feeds. It actually looks pretty nice. I was on the fence about getting the N8, but I think I'm gonna pass and wait for this.
I would imagine you do not get any Facebook etc. updates if you are not a member of Facebook.. On a serious note, I fully agree. And also trust that it can be turned off in the homescreen.
Eh those pictures prove what!? One is square same size widgets (Symbian ^3) the other some kind of talkbubbles from social networks in a big widget. (meego)
Oh yeah the contacts, Phone and email buttons are almost identical as the ones on n900 just different color.
Lets be honest here, most of the OS's out there for touch screens look very similar, let it be iOS, Android or webOS. But the differences are found in the usability and the structure of the OS. Based on this demo, Meego is looking good, in my humble opinion.
I gotta side with Prada on this one. I see similarities; definite Nokia DNA on both. Perhaps why I liked Maemo 4 and Maemo 5 - less Nokia DNA in both of those.
Regardless... to dismiss the "family" resemblance would be a tad bit hasty. I can see it.
