Please change the topic title as this is definitely NOT official!
even though it is indeed not an official statement, the hints are alarming enough...
this being said, it also clearly shows that Maemo is walking a very thin line between... two very unenlightening prospects...
  • NOKIA going bankrupt (the longer Flop / Failure is in charge, the more likely, alas )
  • NOKIA stops the funding...

personally, in over a dozen years owning NOKIAs i have learned to appreciate the long term support of NOKIA for its products and i believe this is still the case.
it becomes really tight when you look at the future, though
  • in how far do they need new apps for N900?
  • they most likely want new apps for MeeGo/Harmattan
  • are they still having an R&D department? m$ is obviously not suited as platform for R&D, thus...
