Yet I also saw the chart showing continued (if reduced) investment in MeeGo by Nokia.

Like many of us here, I don't have much in the way of actual facts about future plans for Nokia/MeeGo, but I'm very interested in seeing it continue.

So I ask: will Nokia release another MeeGo device after the N9?



For the purposes of this question:
  • I don't count the N950 as I'll never get one (and most likely neither will you).
  • Let's assume Harmattan is MeeGo and that the N9 is a MeeGo device.
  • If you have facts/rational analysis which leads you to believe that a MeeGo successor to the N9 is coming: please share it here.
  • Edit: as pointed out by excelar8; this poll might as well be EPIC
  • Edit2: to keep gerbick (or anyone who got lost and ended up here on their way to /b/) happy, sarcasm quotes have been added to the word EPIC in the thread title

Of course it will. It will be a phenomenal success, and it was Elop that has been pushing N9 to come out. They will treat Meego/Harmattan as a boutique niche that one day explodes on its own. It will all depend on the sale of this device. Simple as that. If it doesnt sell, no more Meego devices from Nokia. If it sells, you will see them with and without keyboard
