Where Nokia is heading is obvious, the N9 was the last Maemo-based mobile phone, upcoming devices will therefore be based on Windows Phone. However, I love both my N900 and my N9 so much that I'm actually not willing to accept that the Maemo concept, the combination of open source plus professional ecosystem backend from Nokia (like Maps and Music) should have no future! Intels mobile Atom platform is ready for production now, and as well Motorola as Lenovo have unveiled Intel-based smartphones. Also, an Intel-Z2460 based tablet hast been spotted already. Wouldn't it be amazing to get an Intel powered mobile device such as a tablet which is running Maemo and which is also binary compatible with current Debian/Ubuntu or Fedora distributions? I also love the amazing swipe gestures of the N9 - I never want to miss them again! Since there are some other Linux based smartphone projects such as Ubuntu or Openmoko, I only wonder how much of the current maemo infrastructure could be transferred to those? What actually is Meltemi? I really don't believe that there is still active Linux research going on at Nokia, but this project is mentioned from time to time...
