hold on a minute, for "users" or for "developers"?

Re: MeeGo 1.2 Final Release for Users 19,May and N900 to get the update 19-25,May 16 May, 2011
 

I am thinking this may be false hope - I thought we were getting "DE" version only...

[Edit] I am guessing the full release version may be there, but will NOT be for the N900.

Hopefully it'll be as good as Maemo!

PS: The article has some pretty poor grammar and plenty of mistakes.

I have the impression the source does not know what it is talking about.

We know Meego 1.2 is going to be released about now.

We know there is a Meego Developer edition being worked on to make it useful on the N900.

So this probably means that both distributions will be released within the end of the month... but the interesting one for the N900 is the DE one.

Meego is meant to be developed in the open, it would not be a good sign if an unheard of release would pop out from nowhere.

is this meego for users also or just developers?

If it is for users and we get the update to upgrade, will it allow dual boot to go back and forth between Maemo and Meego?

Re: MeeGo 1.2 Final Release for Users 19,May and N900 to get the update 19-25,May 16 May, 2011
 

Anybody who reads this forum regularly must know this info appears correct as the best N900 users can hope for in the short term is the DE version of meego and that is clearly aimed at Developers/power users.

As an example I understand the web browser is still taking nearly 45 seconds to open.

Anybody expecting meego to replace maemo in the short term is going to be disappointed.

source doesn't know what the hell he is talking about. Please ignore youmobile.org as it is usually entirely full of crap

MeeGo 1.2, the platform, comes out on 19th. Platforms are not for end users. They are for others to build on top of.

MeeGo 1.2 Developer Edition 'beta' will come out same time as SF conference for MeeGo and is targetted for hackers and developers.

There will be nothing for end-users.

Ok, I can sleep easy now :)

lol

Double dam, I'm the third one, so I'm a little disappointed.

Why on earth would these be features in MeeGo DE? Reply in 2 sentences or more.

I'm running a build of MeeGo DE from last night, and it looks pretty sweet. Got the Golden Gate bridge as the background image and everything. :) Absolutely loving the feel of the on-screen keyboards!

I booted one of the images from last week, that the qa-report said had working PIN input ... but I wasn't prompted to enter my SIM pin, and I couldn't find a place to enter one ...

Without working telephony, I am not really prepared to run it for long at present ...

Is SIM PIN input working? How?

Re: MeeGo 1.2 Final Release for Users 19,May and N900 to get the update 19-25,May 16 May, 2011
 

It asks for my PIN as well and doesn't accept anything except the correct code, but so far I've only gotten SMS' out of my phone. No calls work and neither does 3G internet.

The phone gets reception and even shows reception in bars and catches my operator name from the SIM.
