I'm wondering with the minimum specs, does that rule out the N900? Considering the N900 has 256MB of physical RAM? It shouldn't right? JW..
The slide was for the compliancy spec, which has to do with manufacturers getting their products branded as MeeGo.
The answer to the question was that the N900 will be fine. Of course the N900 hardware adaption team isn't actually targetting anything vaguely day-to-day useful (developers only), so it probably wont matter either way.
I'm waiting until April-ish next year before I make any judgements on Meego.
There still is a problem with basic hardware under Meego and the Developers are working really hard to get stuff working - (e.g. battery charging is still only possible via USB).
I'm hoping that Meego will be in a usable state on the n900 next year because it is the only "mobile" platform that aims to be a proper OS (e.g. proper multi-tasking).
Other manufacturers are more interested in dumbing-down the OS to reduce manufacturing costs, increase profits and exert more control over their devices.
It seems Meego is going in the opposite direction and actually innovating in the mobile market - you know making a computing device actually do more and not less..
Sadly, I think Geonxt could be right. By the time MeeGo is in a usable state (12 months time?) we will have all moved on - and not sure anyone around will want to spend the time needed to make it work well on N900. Oh well...

People always move around (in real life and with their flavor of phone OS) they also come around back to the roots and no other major phone OS has the easiest path to root than Maemo/Meego
