Look Unless someone posts a Picture to convince you, you will never believe.
I dont have access to do such a thing so believe what you wish

like i said in (my now updated) post, the proof IS THERE.
FCC certification + leak / teaser
there are pictures (& there is a E7 from which the RM-680 seems to take quite a few parts) even movies
where is yours?

and nope, i'll never believe you, unless you provide any proof. which you won't, thus...

i still believe nobody next week will get a "free device"
there will be an official announcement for the successor of the N900 and maybe (MAYBE) a somewhat indicative schedule of when to expect it in the shops. let's hope it won't be as long as w/ the N900 :o
otherwise, it'll very likely be the last Maemo / MeeGo device from NOKIA :(
which i'll get, anyway :D

Look at the news I leaked last time there was something this big going on, and was I correct?
what come at the press conference, only the announcement of Moblin+Maemo= MeeGo
Nobody else on the net reported such thing.

well, this is the same argument about the proof of the (non-)existence of something that can't be seen. the absence of observation is no proof of the non-existence.
the fact it can't be seen may simply be due to the fact that we look in the wrong place / at the wrong device (which all the discussion about TWO devices was about, in a way...)
unless there is a 2nd device, obviously, there is a keyboard.

any proof of the existence of a 2nd device?
anyone?

There was no teaser. Eldar leaked the device and Nokia announced it week after that. About week before Maemo Conference.

There certainly was huge Maemo device thread(one of them trying to decide would openpandora get out before Nokia's fremantle device). Most people where expecting RX-51 or RX-71 to be tablet but me and some other brave souls insisted it to be phone :D

My recollection was that it was leaked before Nokia World (which was September), i.e. sometime in August, not just before Maemo Summit (which was October 2009).

They gave N900 about 20 seconds Air time at Nokia World it was the week after they had shoved its official announcement on Nokia Conversations.
they really was not interested in marketing it at all, they gave all stream time to N97 Mini.

I can't really member the exactly how it went but there was certainly rumors about it before the Maemo Conference.

Eldar just offered pictures, features, review, whatnot just before it got announced.

Very true.

I wonder just how many got in to it because of the 2 awesome youtube adverts that where launches right after the announcement.
Hyped so many of us who had been waiting the device for long long time.

none, which so ever!
thus
FCC certification + (leaked ~ teasing) video = consumer phone

it surely makes a difference... If it wouldnt, companys wont need to make a NDA. E.g. think about apple and informations about new devices. They would do the same if a teaser about a future phone is leaked. Regardless if it will be sold in a week or a month. Thats normal business, because they want to get all attantion when it is officially announced. rumors can be good for devices, but to much rumor can be fatal for a new device

any proof of the existence of a 2nd device?
anyone?

well, i presented my evidence & there doesn't seem to be any contender, so i'll provide a couple reasons why i believe the RM-680 will be the consumer device and the only Maemo / MeeGo dev. this year (thus that developers will have to live w/ that device too).
the two reasons are actually one, supported by two top NOKIA exes.
i hope they won't get fired because they provided evidence for the non existence of something the company didn't plan to sell in the 1st place?

1st Elop said there'd be one MeeGo device this year.
he didn't say only one because even only one is already too much for his taste, but, well, he said so.
and i guess he would definitely be the one to nip in the bud any 2nd MeeGo device (that would divert resources from Wx devices, obviously)

2nd Rich Green.
for the sake of simplicity i'll refer to an earlier post where i already presented the evidence provided by Rich Green (NOKIA's CTO) (more in an effort to prove that NOKIA's vision extended beyond LostDOS se7en Paralysed then to prove there would only be one MeeGo dev this year, but one MeeGo device seems to be all that he's talking about and all that's needed...)
http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...9&postcount=24

still, anyone, any tangible evidence of a 2nd MeeGo device this year?

do you really thing it would have taken NOKIA three days to get it off the air if they didn't want it there in the 1st place?

the only reason not to leave it on line eternally is because it was showing the one and only MeeGo device we'll get from NOKIA this year & it will be a CONSUMER device. good that ppl have a good chance to have a good look @ it, not good they get bored with it
(remember Apollo 13, the 3rd mission to the moon? it didn't even get on television before the explosion... "getting to the moon isn't that exciting anymore" :rolleyes: )

if it is only a developer device, what does NDA matter?

in fact i already looked @ the 770 before getting the 7710 and again @ the N800 (N810?) before getting the N95 but always rejected 'em 'cuz they didn't have a SIM, thus no viable phone function.
the N900 crossed that bridge so i eventually got a MID ¦-)
i don't want to have to carry two devices w/ me and can't depend on wi-fi connection only, thus a mobile phone function is paramount for me.

What the heck is this crap about "developer device"? I don't mind if Nokia sell the device empty without OS installed just get the friggin thing out there.

Edit: Advice to Nokia: sell the device only from your webshop and without OS installed. That will make sure that everyone knows it's not for joe grandpa.

Looking at the direction this thread is going, yes.

what was the thread all about, again?
MeeGo or Maemo / Harmattan, right?
not two or three or a truckload full of different devices, was it?

well, let's have a look, what OS on the teaser device, right?

let's have a look at it from both side, shall we?
one, it is a developer device only, won't see the crowds of phoneshops anywhere in world, right?
what does it matter what OS it is, it'll get overwritten the minute it gets into a developer's finger, won't it?

two, it is a consumer device, the one and only Maemo / MeeGo device we'll see from NOKIA this year.
what does it look like,
wait, let me think, it hink, i seem to remember... iOS, maybe?
why would it look like iOS?
like i posted earlier, the teaser only was a scam from rotten iPotatos to :confused: NOKIA customers.
one more proof.
or, maybe, NOKIA looked around and wondered what seemed to be the most popular "smart phone" interface @ the moment?
if they want to be popular & sell millions of it, they might as well choose a popular interface, no?
if they can offer what attracts most buyers to iOS (more exactly, the devices iOS runs on, 'cuz i think even the most casual rotten iPotatos user dislikes the way they can't do anything w/ the device, not even make phone calls properly BUT offer them:
- an open source freely upgradable OS
- multitasking
- real sound quality
- build in VOIP so you don't have to give Steve Jobs your CC # so he can plunder it @ will
maybe a few users would even come back to NOKIA, who knows?
it's sure worth a try...

By "dev device" I think it just mean that Nokia will not advertise it as a mainstream device, as N97 and N8.

Maybe they are considering MeeGo not like avegage-joe-friendly enough, and will target it to geeks and enthusiasts, mostly likely it happened with N900. Nokia made a lot of fuzz on how advanced and groundbreaking the device was, but mostly at the specialized sites, events and magazines.

What reinforces this opinion ;)

I believe that Nokia, considering the move towards WP7, will release the N9 just to have some of the late Maemo/MeeGo R&D investiment back. Since they invested in the sofware and hardware for that, why completely sack it, when you have a loyal fanbase big enough for a minimal run?

He doesn't sound very confident. It's more like he's saying "like a N900 v2, y'know?"
