N900 successor ship date (N9 or whatever it will be called)
 

I have searched both TMO and Google but can't find any recent/reliable news on when the N9 (or whatever Nokia's first slide-keyboard Meego phone will be called) will be released.

Like everyone, back in July/August I saw the Macbook Air-like photos which purport to show the N9. Also saw the Q4 '10 release predictions.

So... does anyone have any info (with a reliable/public source) newer than this? I'm looking for info which entered the public domain in October 2010 or later.

If there's some massive thread containing this info, please point me at it and accept my apologies for the dupe. Also, I posted this to 'Competitors' because it didn't seem to me to fit into any of the other categories; sorry Mods if this thread is in the wrong place.

To be clear: I am only looking for information with a [semi-]reliable source which you can link to. To be even more clear: please provide a link to go along with any information/speculation.

I could say the N9 will be released on 30th February next year but without a valid source you'd be wise not to take me very seriously.

Of course, it's TMO and you're free to post whatever you want...

I guess it would be around April 2011.

Meego 1.2 is scheduled to be released on April, so I believe the N9 is going to be released at about the same time.

Oh, and the source for that date:

So you're not even sure what the name of it is yet, and you think there's a reliable release date?

As per my original post:

• I don't have all the information, so I am looking for others better informed than I to fill in the gaps.
• News on a release date doesn't have to mean one specific day. It could be as vague as "Q4 '10".

Thank you sela. I didn't know this. Useful info from a credible source :)

Well you should not think of sources when it's pretty obvious... I mean look at meego now... it ain't even complete... Where do you think would nokia get a decent mobile OS if the original one isn't even finished yet. Nokia won't be developing meego they will just develop a UI for their phones.
