Let's hope for it, but he doesn't look like the type to promote Linux so far.

The situation with N9 is strange somewhat. On one hand someone said in this thread above, that consumer device was pushed (ditching the hw keyboard one) in order to attract "mainstream" consumers. On the other hand Meego itself is pushed to the corner as a experiment/research project, and WP7 is assigned the consumer attraction role in Nokia. So why can't N9 come out with keyboard then anyway? It'll work perfectly as an experiment. I'm pretty confused about that.
