people complain against you is because you are always negative and talk a lot of stuff and dont provied a little proof. There was one time you said that you converted you micro usb port to a full usb OTG and never bothered telling how.
Now we seem to be getting closer to the truth and my points.

You just said

"its not required that all companies makes their OS 100% opensource. iOS is barely opensoruce. So is wp7 etc.. nokia kept certain parts of the os locked away like BME etc to prevent people damaging the device circuitry."

We are talking about a device that has been ABANDONED by its manufacturer and under those circumstances for any future development to take place and be successful it MUST open souce the complete entirety of the device to enable future development to take place.

The reason nitroid is troubled and MeeGo is not yet established as an os for the N900 is simple because of the lack of code needed to fully understand how to drive the device.

Some truth in the words of Daperl in that if the device is driven wrongly then it will suffer damage, the main reason everything has to be right.

MeeGo is not complete simply because they are having to put together every single driver needed that will work together not fight itself and also allow the porting of much needed apps to run without conflict.

We have a situation here that is absolutely full of conflicts in one way or another and will remain so untill Nokia release fully the code needed to establish much needed clear development to take place.

Please take a look at all the NOFIX situation on the os of the N900 Maemo version and then you will realise the reason everyone is having trouble let alone Nokia who just stopped to further there own development.

MeeGo is being developed for FUTURE devices and only a handful of devs are working on the actual version of MeeGo for the N900.

Stop dreaming and get realistic and more to the point realise that time is against us IF devs give up on the adaptions for the N900, which at this rate is a more likely thing to happen as progress is very slow.
