They said that they would be releasing 1 meego phone per year and meego was the way forward in the long term. what happened to that?

Future distributions were mentioned on their last Q4 2012 strategy briefing. Don't really remember that 1 MeeGo phone per year. Don't need much to realize there naturally wont be MeeGo phones ever from Nokia.

Nokia needs its own OS for things like the kinect concept and graphene phone that Nokia has been aiming for 5 years now. They just received 1.4 billion dollar grant to develop graphene. Or Nokia's glass project. Harmattan and what learned there will no doubt be used.

Don't expect to hear anything in that front anywhere soon or get excited, but it's simply something Nokia needs... for its future distruptions. Windows Phone and 808 PV being perfect example of the limitations Nokia can't do without its own OS, not to talk about Nokia glass or kinect.
