Re: Time for an open maemo fork?
It wouldn't help you. MeeGo doesn't exist.

Re: YOU have killed MeeGo/Qt
Compatibility makes no sense if you're on the bottom. If you're the dominant player, you can say "See, we even run the other guy's apps, so we run everything! There's now no point going with the...

Re: Nokia Plan B
There is no MeeGo. MeeGo does not exist in a deployable form at this time. They decided not to pin their hopes on something they've spent a fortune on and is still not in a saleable form after...

Re: Nokia Plan B
It reads like a few of we nerds upset that we're not getting a toy we were promised and are throwing a temper tantrum. I used to sound like this sometimes... 20 years ago, when I was 18 and just...

Re: My rescue plan for meego
That's an empty assertion, not an actual argument, which would have facts and logic connecting those facts. You just arbitrarily eliminated any OS option that wasn't MeeGo.

Re: Worth buying the nokia n900 now?
No. (Stop the booing!) Buy something like the Viliv N5 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2mrN6SFslTw). That way you're not locked into MeeGo or ARM-based Linux. If MeeGo is still developed, you can...
