    [ QUERY ] Which alternative N900 OS will succeed?

    I've gotten a lot of enjoyment watching (and participating when I can) in the development efforts to produce an alternative OS for the N900. Last June, it seemed activity had organized around 2 main ideas.

    Five months later where are we? After a frenzy of great work, Nitdroid seems stalled. And the message has gotten louder/clearer that any fully-funcitonal Meego release for the N900 must come from the community.

    I've tried both, and both present new opportunities and challenges.

    So which will it be? Anyone got news about Nitdroid's fate? Should we throw all our eggs in the Meego basket from now on?

    Reactions?

    If we learn from the n800 experience the answer is none. The older tablets were too great devices just how the n900 now is. An it will be (mostly) forgotten as well when the next thing comes along. Get used to it, it's the speed of this business. So I say maemo will be the best just as maemo diablo still is the best os for the older tablets.

    clearly the answer is...... none
    but maemo5 might work properly in about 10 years!
