Nokia working on Two New low end MeeGo Smartphones for Next Billion
 

Re: Nokia working on Two New low end MeeGo Smartphones for Next Billion
 

Oh for the love of god....

The source article concludes with the statement:

"Could it be that two low end MeeGo handsets could be used to test the water to replace Nokia’s S40 line up? I’m not saying that this is the full intention, but I’m saying that it’s got to be a thought,"


How in the HELL does that translate to "TWO MORE MEEGO PHONES FOR ALL!" to so many foolish people???

who is telling nokia to create 100 meego phones every year.
just make a single meego phone every year.. and stop this crap of "its going to be the last phone of its kind" you are doing it from the good old 7710...
for GOD sake you people are phone manufacturer not lovers that your love is going to be distributed if you make another phone of its kind...
if people likes the platform then what's bloody your problem... I know you people couldn't get the companies for meego...
but the fact is you guys just needed one company which was Alien Dalvik
if company like blackberry is able to do it on their own... you were already having the developed software... even iOs is capable of emulating .apk.. why can't you..

cddiede would it kill you to be a bit more positive?

I will try to hope for the best :D and hopefully we shall see future meego support

Re: Nokia working on Two New low end MeeGo Smartphones for Next Billion
 

this isn't going to be MeeGo but rather Meltemi, a fork of Maemo destined to replace S40, indeed.

i still use 1100 or 1208, but when the day comes where they won't work anymore (most likely by accident rather then wear out), it'd be nice to have a replacement.
really don't care for

• camera, no matter what resolution
• Web browsing
• a GUI, in the sense of a desktop like construct.
• (surprise coming from me, i guess...) no keyboard... (but a numpad, of course)

then again, this is probably NOT what they would like to sell to the "next billion"; they want them to go online, buy apps & all that rubbish :mad:

My old 3310 still works like a dream, when every other phone dies i can always rely on it.

Meego in regards to Nokia is done.

Meltemi is the next Linux platform. This is their plan B.

Re: Nokia working on Two New low end MeeGo Smartphones for Next Billion
 

«Plan B is Plan A»
dixit Flop

but behind his back, there are a lot of plan Bs, included but not limited to...

• Symbian as bread & butter platform... well, more butter then bread, maybe :D)
• S40 'til...
• Meltemi
• Maemo (as an ongoing foray in disruptive technologies :cool:)

looking @ it from a pragmatic point of view, one can't help feeling NOKIA keeps Flop for the sake of ca$hing in m$$$$$$ ¦-))))))))))))
the moment that ceases... kick in the @$$ :rolleyes:

Re: Nokia working on Two New low end MeeGo Smartphones for Next Billion
 

Smart man, maybe that is what they are doing. I can't say. I just know that your idea is sound.

Re: Nokia working on Two New low end MeeGo Smartphones for Next Billion
 

LOL, your right. My last few posts have been awfully negative.


It's just that Nokia has broken my god damned heart...

Re: Nokia working on Two New low end MeeGo Smartphones for Next Billion
 

Is there a difference between the bread and butter? bread more important than butter? They can choose jam or peanut butter instead? ;:cool:

Re: Nokia working on Two New low end MeeGo Smartphones for Next Billion
 

I know that it's unlikely what we will see 2 Meego phones, but you never know. I will just hope that we do and Meego gets further support. If not then i'll just rely on this amazing community.

Re: Nokia working on Two New low end MeeGo Smartphones for Next Billion
 

maybe a way to tell Flop
«hey man, time for you to leave...»
:D :cool:

Re: Nokia working on Two New low end MeeGo Smartphones for Next Billion
 

I am pretty sure that Mr. Elop is dropping platforms to focus on Win7 and that is their primary premium class focus, while S40 is budget focus. Everything else will be shut. I can not see why Nokia would close bugs tracker and still plan to use MeeGo.

Re: Nokia working on Two New low end MeeGo Smartphones for Next Billion
 

i cannot imagine those meltemi phones to have lower specs than wp tango. From what we know wp8 is gonna get the same core as win8, so maybe wp is a dead end and will be replaced by meltemi and win8/wp8.

Re: Nokia working on Two New low end MeeGo Smartphones for Next Billion
 

N960 with Maemo 7 OS
3.9in Super-Amoled CBD
slide out keyboard
12mpx camera
1.0ghz CPU

I hope ^this^ will be 'low-end' by the time these phones get released. :D :D :D

Matters on the amount of RAM, that's hitting on the lower end of smartphones now.
