Nokia did tell us that the Maemo 5 device won't be called an "Internet Tablet". Maybe it's not even going to be an internet tablet?

Nokia must be planning something big for Maemo 5. They're spending a huge amount of money on Maemo, and are buying a community to surround it (which they could have for free if they were a bit more open).

Maemo 5 doesn't seem related to the recently-announced Nokia Home Automation device, because that has been announced to be running OpenWRT Linux on a router.

Remember the three Maemo guys who quite Nokia suddenly and very publicly on the same day early this year? Their new company had a very secretive website, but didn't it say something about a "house computer"? Maybe they're working on some Maemo device that Nokia knows about "at arms length"?

Just thinking aloud here.
