That seems odd as I thought it was timed for the start not the end of the Conference. Perphaps like Jobs/Apple they are going to make a grand announcement on the last day of the Conference that Meego 1.2 is now ready for download then again.........

Here we go yet again only this time it is MeeGo and not Maemo and same old story for the N900, dont build up your hopes folks not this time !..... remember once bitten twice shy n all that.

Personally i think it will be no better than the nitdroid that has many holes.

Prove me wrong... i really really really want to be wrong in what i am thinking but when you look at the sequence of events leading up to the MeeGo release date as promised, it got delayed, now do you not see the similarities from Maemo and all the promised Qguill made to everyone for it to fall flat on it's face?.

I, like just about everyone reading about MeeGo want this to be soooo right, good and proper but let's face it if track records are anything to go by and your getting soooo angry in your replies, makes everyone wonder dont you think????.

However, as I've said before, anyone who has been following the events on mailing list could have seen the delay coming and in addition to that, the fact we got severely delayed due to Feb11 and the fallout from that on the MeeGo project. Priorities changed and changing things around took time.

MeeGo is a public and transparent project and all the code and everything is out there and any sane product manager would decide based on that public information that delaying is a good idea to stabilize one of the new focus'es, the tablet UX.

The MeeGo code may well be out there but what is NOT out there is the N900 hardware code and untill it is, there is never going to be a match between the MeeGo build and the N900 and precisely the reason why there has never been a successfull build of anything software wise for the N900, and in fact the Maemo put together by Nokia was never finished and supported as we all know to any degree of satisfaction as you only need to look at the NOFIX's attatched to Maemo to know how badly it flopped.

Now you make the statement "MeeGo is a public and transparent project and all the code and everything is out there and any sane product manager would decide based on that public information that delaying is a good idea to stabilize one of the new focus'es, the tablet UX" .... what you failed to say was the N900 is NOT a tablet and is not included in the TABLET UX build for obvious reasons.

Now we see a shift away from the N900 that is clear if people read this properly !.

Your aggresion is coming across as frustration to any negative comments towards MeeGo and is clear to see in your posts.

I have yet to see anything positive towards getting the much needed hardware code to enable ANY OS to be put together for the N900 and the very reason i am throwing doubt over the MeeGo project as far as the N900 is concerned so i still say the same thing, MeeGo for the N900 will never be accomplished to a full and workable OS even as far as Maemo is currently AND the N900 fall's short in hardware spec !.

You had better watch out on your comments because you might well suffer the same embarresment as qwim did through no fault of his own i might add.

I am a realist not a dreamer ! and i say again ... i very very very want to be wrong here ok.

If his aggression is coming across then its only because he must be channeling the feeling of the greater majority of this community. Since day one on this forum you have done nothing but whine, moan, ***** and generally act like a spoilt child and I think people are just about reaching their limit for how much longer they are going to remain polite to you. I know I have.

Stskeeps has already explained what caused the delay. The code is there if you want to verify it. Nokia != Meego. We already have a version of Meego which people have stated runs well (with some glitches) on the N900, including calls etc but doing a little research would have taken time away from your *****ing so I can hardly expect you to have noticed that thread.

Finally if there is NEVER a release of Meego for the N900. What has been lost? We were never promised one when we bought the phone. In fact up until a shorty while ago we were actively being told there wouldn't be one.

On a final note. When I was living in the UK whiny buggers like yourself were generally looked down upon or given a solid slap round the ear. Whats happened there?

No, you're just off your medication. There's a difference.

Can someone please start a petition to get abill_uk ousted from this place? He's the source of several good people leaving because of his ******** and I think I might be next.
