Come on man, the hardware in question was probably killed months ago, back when Ari Jaaksi left. I dare say, Eldar is late to this party. As for the new hardware, it was probably already in development if not done.
yes I dont dissagree that Eldar is a idiot and the fact that N9 probadly was dished long time ago, but still we all know Nokia has alot of delays and is still not in sync with the Qt development/ovistore and so on this is bad for its time to deliver.
Just an example, I am one of the people that infact has "lobbyied" for using qt-components instead of libmeegotuch but at the same time I wonder what the hell is going on inside nokia, after three days no answers from nokia at the meego-touch mailinglist someone blogged about it:

For somebody who actually joined this forum because of harmattan i have been waiting for the first harmattan, now MeeGo(or MeeGo-Harmattan) device for 2-3 years. it's getting a bit tiring to say the least.
I truly hope one of the devices Intel has talked about to be shown in MWC will be Nokia indeed.
I am with you mate. I got fed up with Nokia. I sold my N900 today for £100.00, I just want to get rid of it ... fast. I will never ever buy another NOkia device again, they've shown no respect or care to us all by neglecting the maemo platform. even if a more powerful meego-harmattan-tarzan-batman-superman nokia phone is released in the future, I'll never ever be interested.
Now this is probably the case i think a device is closer than ppl think
Old issues that deal more with Qt than Harmattan itself don't say much as to what's happening internally with Nokia. Never mind that they couldn't ever call themselves MeeGo or even "MeeGo compliant" or use the trademarks if they were to proceed with the original MeeGo/Harmattan plan. Nokia would be wholly foolish to do so.

Yet people ignore the swaths of ignored Android devices from vendors like Samsung and Motorola, many of which came and were dropped in less time than it took to go from PR1.1 to PR1.3.
It was Filed in December against a Harmattan device image so not old at all and says a lot really considering rumour was going around months before that, that they was moving straight to meego 1.2, theres bugs filed with harmattan for this month too

And "Harmattan" could now simply be the internal codename for their version of the OS. I doubt it represents anything that it was planned to, especially with regard to being a "hybrid" that still used .deb packages.
ok answer this question this is an update of Qt mobility api project status on different platforms posted 9th January
Harmattan is listed as different platform to MeeGo and API maturity is further along than MeeGo
I dont think its just an internal name they carried on using for MeeGo, its still a hybrid imo if it still uses .deb is another story. http://doc.qt.nokia.com/qtmobility-1.2/
The truth is that MeeGo has been anticipated for so long, and with MeeGo hyped as the "saviour of Nokia" by engadget m0r0ns it would be a grave mistake to then launch MeeGo on last years hardware.
So what is your creditial to call engadget "*****s"???
I think it is pretty much common sense for Nokia to continue remaining as one of the big players in mobile market is a successful launch of Meego. You can not win the upgrading war with samsung/LG/htc. Being a participant in that is gonna drag Nokia down. I think they know it.
So what is your creditial to call engadget "*****s"?
For most folks around here... the only credential necessary to call Engadget anything negative is because they're not American whereas Engadget is (according to them) biased towards Apple or any other American technology and/or fan favorite.
