Well how is it an excuse? We don't know that yet....
For all we know it may be coming in PR1.1 or 1.2 similar to N900.
I dont see how it solidifies anything, its just an alternative until/if support comes.

You realize that you're, once again, helping my argument on my behalf instead of debating an opposing point, right? If that's the case, you might as well 'thank' me or just simply pass over without a reply.
You were making the assertion that no apps from Maemo5 will run on Maemo6.
Unlike what is the case for older iterations of iOS or Android.
It certainly seems like at least some from Maemo5 will.
That's the only point I was making...
I'm not trying to argue backwards compatibility is way better, far from it.
We know the reasons why that is most probably not the case.

Which part is a WIP? The whole thing? Didn't you read the Maemo.org thread about the cat and mouse game with Aegis? Didn't the N9 have long enough to be worked on? Why are Nokia so quick to patch up holes found AEGIS and leave everything else flopping around insecure and unpatched, unfixed? Where is Nokia's priority? Not on your behalf as a customer, it would appear.
LOL, way to exaggerate things, srsly Dan....
You really need to get off this crusade you're on to convince folks it's all over & a lost cause.
If what you wrote above is genuinely what you believe, fine.
But sorry, I don't get as dire an impression from what I've read, at all.

Only SOME pentile matrix displays have really ugly issues--I'm not sure that the N9 is or isn't one of them
Good point, I forgot to mention that.
Do you know what the specific issues are that these 'some' have?

and their article is effectively the equivalent of shouting, 'AHHA! IT'S PENTILE MATRIX! I KNEW IT! PENTILE MATRIX IS BAD!' and doesn't really go on to explain why THIS particular version is bad--it just assumes it. Can you help explain why this is bad--or maybe do they have a follow-up with better information?
LOL, well BBG? Anything?
