    N950 with MeeGo this year, but who trusts Nokia anymore?

    I can't understand anything from Nokia theses days:
    Qt yes, Qt nope...
    S40, Symbian, MeeGo, Windows Phone 7...

    I really like my N900, but I don't think I would buy any more Nokia devices until they have a clear vision (and execution) of what they want to do with open source and Qt.

    It would be very funny if they finally launch a MeeGo device before a Windows Phone one.

    I don't trust Nokia, but if they release a Meego device and it is decent I will probably buy it after it has proven itself. I won't assume they'll be fixing anything after release, so if it has problems I can't live with I won't buy it. And also if, as rumoured, the device doesn't have a keyboard, I probably won"t buy it because I love having a real keyboard on my N900. I'm not in a rush to upgrade, I can see myself living with my N900 for at least another year, but its limited RAM (if nothing else) means I'll want an upgrade sooner or later, just so long as it is suffciently like an improved N900.

    I would also wait if it doesn't have hw keyboard.

    Another feature I'd like to see before any upgrade is a resistive multitouch screen, best of both worlds.

    If it has the hw keyboard, I am getting it. Is one of my favourite features on the N900. I am hoping that it will also have the latest SoC in it (at least A9s).

    I've said this once before but I'll say it again. No more Nokia for me. Well, at least for the time being. Finnish-company my ***, I don't really like them anymore since what they did to MeeGo. Believe it or not but now the old CEO's would be better choice for Nokia than the current one. It's odd to admit it but I miss Vanjoki. Bring him back and maybe then I'll buy Nokia's MeeGo-phone, if they ever will make one.

    So far I'm looking for WebOS from HP. Otherwise it's going to be Intel and Aava for MeeGo-phone.

    Please note : I'm not saying that WPh7 would be bad, I'm not just interested in it. Same goes for Android, those do not meet my expectations and Bada is not live yet, as far as I know.

    If things go to plan I think we will see a MeeGo device this year.
    Problem is, with M$ clanking around in the engine room, will they stick a spanner in the works and demand a crippled release to scuttle the Good Ship MeeGo in favor of pushing people onto WP7 devices. Remember, M$ hates open source and Qt and would want (read as "be desperate") to get WP7 to market in quantity, and they're not gonna do that if MeeGo turns out to be the killer O/S we're all hoping for.

    When it does arrive, I'll certainly give it a good look. I've already got an upgrade path sorted, so I'm gonna be in possession of an N900 and the new MeeGo device when it happens. Should be an awesome combination, IMO.

    I'm due a phone upgrade in August. If Nokia have launched a viable N900-alike Meego device I will get it. It will need Flash 10.x support and a hardware keyboard. Those are "deal-breakers" if not present.

    I would immediately buy a meego device from another company. But buying another device from nokia, treated half-hearted from the beginning, is nothing I'm looking forward to.

    It's only sarcastic to use "meego" and "future disruptions" in one sentence.
