True Say.. But remember the time when we could ask 'Niklas Savander' questions via Twitter? Many people asked questions regarding Maemo.. So there is a slight chance, that there might be something new...

Oh yeah.. And btw wasn't it Anssi Vanjoki who promised us Ovi Maps with Navigation?? He is scheduled to have a talk, so once again, there is a slight chance for surprises...

definitely encouraging. I would be stoked to get a new QT Maps that matches the Symbian version, but hoping it will exceed it and retain stuff like contacts app integration, etc

QT upgrade and bug fixes are all people should expect. Expect anything more and your probably in for disappointment when it arrives.

No, seriously. Good news.

Edit: I think Nokia should announce this in public, as lots of people are saying goodbye to Maemo just because of the lack of updates.

I KNOW im still rotating and tapping my phone/mid in shock lol

[trollon]
Meego is dead since the new CEO is a former Microsoft Nokial will go winmobile at the end
[trolloff]

well fact is the oss community should ask ourself if the new CEO like open source or if direction is to go more closed again in the future.

I now symbian is open but still not mush talk from Nokia about meego future

Is Nokia even sponsoring the meego conference? Gold sponsors says TI only at the meegosite...

I actually wish Nokia would use N900 more as an experimental platform, to test new things from Beta Labs for example. There are plenty of users in the N900 community who would love to test new things that Nokia has to offer.

Nokia World speaker: "And the N900 will be getting PR1.3 with Qt 4.7 and lots of bug fixes.... Oh and just one more thing - it will come with Flash Player 10.1"

I think the issue here is that they would have to develop for - and gather feedback from - an OS and h/w platform that are both dead.
Not sure how much that would aid in any beta labs efforts.

seriously! photobrowser, socialnetworking, Nokia Messaging, were all great apps for Symbian. I was expecting to see alot more QT experiments for N900.... maybe for MeeGo

wouldn't it make sense to release pr1.3 alongside the N8 so all the devs can get straight on it, then they can pick the best apps out ready for meego
