Maemo 6
 
I heard maemo 6 will be released before Meego. Anybody heard anything about this? Or is it just a rumour like the rest of the crap thats been said. Will Maemo 6 even be available for the N900, as an update? It's a very odd move by Nokia as I don't see the point, they have Windows Phone for the mainstream crowd, and Meego for those that like there freedom, but why Maemo now? Supposedly the API will be compatible with Meego 1.2. if you want the source just pop maemo 6 in google news. the sites don't seem that well known so it could be like the 1.4 rumour

Nothing official. Just from my memory what I remember reading somewhere.

As I know Maemo 6 aka Harmattan will be released, only marketing is calling it MeeGo. It still good old Maemo under the hood... with deb and other things.
It will be compatible with MeeGo, but you'll have to work around things if you want to install things from the MeeGo repositories.
It should come out by the end of this year... and as it looks like it will be the stepchild of Nokia, just like the N900 was...
Will it be available for the N900... will have to wait and see.

Hate to spoil your hopes but by the end of this year the N900 will be well and truly buried by Nokia as they will have moved on to newer hardware all round than the N900 has.

No such thing that i am aware of Maemo 6 and i am sure many will say the same, even Nokia !.

Have to rely on this community i sadly say as Nokia has already proven that there is currently nil support for our N900.

Yeah, it's not like they're releasing a Nokia-developed version of MeeGo for the N900 or anything.

Oh, wait...
