i think they were on the LIMO wagon not moblin.

it would be nice if maybe they came over to meego, they obviously have some pretty decent stuff.

No resemblance to Classic Palm They say more in common with Maemo so can it be mated to Mer?

Now I may be mistaken but based on the wording on the site you linked (and subsequent links from there)

This is :
1.) an overlay OS (like HTC's overlay on top of Android)
2.) This http://www.access-company.com/products/gvm/ was a test run
3.) They are looking to attract companies like Nokia, not "lowly" individuals like us.

We Maemo folk might be labeled as sad and lowly when the Meego devices start landing on planet earth. What's going to stop us from making some Franken build of Maemo+Mer+Meego+some other OS to keep my baby (N800) fresh and alive.

GVM is a separate product from ALP, though runs on ALP, currently available standalone for Nokia n-series devices, recently updated for the n900.

ALP is on the First ELSE - http://else.bz and seen in many videos on YouTube from Mobile World Congress.

thanks tom.

i wonder what access thinks wrt meego. i guess just a competitor, but seems like there could be some common goals at least in subprojects
