Where are all the MeeGo tablets?
 

I've not seen hide nor hair of new MeeGo tablet hardware in many months and the hardware that's out there is old and snooze worthy. Anybody with their ear to the ground know what's up?

MeeGo on tablets?? Blatherskite, I say! I'll believe it when I see one in my own hands--or see one in person or at least commonly available enough that many people have seen one in person. MeeGo's tablet ambitions are humbug, at this point.

IOS & Android rule the market.

Consider this why would anyone risk and base hardware on the platform that has not proved itself, while there is working, established OS like Android, which allows you to shoot out a new product every 6 months?

In order for meego to succeed, it has to provide wildcards that are strong game changers.

Is meego even ready for commercial products? Glancing through bugs.meego.com I see quite a of important unresolved bugs. A tablet running meego would need to be noob friendly, so that an average user won't have to go hunting through forums to resolve mysterious bugs while his friend with the iPad just does whatever folks with tablets do.

Better be late and be able to survive as an accomplished if niche OS rather than rush out the gate and mar its name as a buggy, unusable OS suitable only for neckbeards. The bad, geeky, non-friendly name on the street is what killed symbian and also dogged android for quite a long time.

sigh> I know, I know, it sounds a lot like I'm rationalizing and desperately trying to see the silver lining here... It's because, frankly, I'm kind of doing it at this point.

Is it me or does the logo of "Maemo" seem much better than "MeeGo"?
Also sounds a little better?
Also "Maemo" can create better puns;
Maephone, Maepad, MaeTV, MaeTube, MaeDJ, MaeBoard, MaeBooks, Where's MaeDevice?
