Infraction points for something. This thread is cursed. I need to stay away fr.o.m. It.

On the other hand, refractory points are good against flaming...

I don't understand why meego discussion is such a touchy topic for some of the community members. At worst it makes things a bit confusing when mixed in with with maemo discussion.

It becomes a touchy subject because we have members who spread misinformation.

Yeah, I hate that it has got so political. It's getting to the point where MeeGo and Symbian (at least in this forum) are thought of as being synonymous in quality. Which just isn't true, MeeGo N900 CE is really great at the moment, and getting better everyday. We just need developers to start porting apps so it's not such a barren landscape :)

If MeeGo did live up to its hype and was at least somewhat usable by now, this wouldn't be a touchy subject.

It is more than usable at the moment. Oh look, that misinformation I was talking about.

I am using MeeGo 1.1 very well on my Lenovo netbook. Issues are minor, and no worse than those encountered on much more mature platforms.

I also have MeeGo on my HP mini, but I never use it because Joli Cloud is much better in just about every single aspect (I am being dead honest and objective now). Joli Cloud is made for end users, and work straight out of the box, with MeeGo I have to manually compile (yes - compile) and then install the network drivers to have any sort of functional netbook. Obviously compiling the network drivers is only for the geeky minority.

Anyway, I was talking about MeeGo on the N900 (phone, GSM, talk, MMS, 3G, ARM etc), not MeeGo for X86.

Pretty much all the normal phone functionality works. Power saving isn't bad, not quite as good as Maemo but I've been using one of my N900s with MeeGo CE on it for about a month, as a primary phone (my personal one, I use another with maemo for work).

That's why I don't have meego on my netbook :/

but MeeGo CE is improving fast imo.
