I know the N9 doesnt have desktops, but i was wondering if there are any third party plans (or an already ongoing development) for such thing.

Cant help loving the way the N900 deals with desktops and widgets. Tried the android way also and doesnt even hold a candle to it. N900 frees the desktops in such a flexible way that i only have to imagine how i want it to be or what info to show, and not adapt to what it allows.

sorry for the long post for such a small (albeit important for me) question. :-)
Look its an open source world i'm sure its possible, plus so many ppl want it and some hacker(s) is/r going to definitely look into options and will end up implementing it. Nothing is impossible. Meego is more open then maemo i hear? So why not. Of course it wont be exactly like n900, but maybe when tried its going to have its pros n cons.
