We don't know that. All we know is that the released software (the new maemo SDK) is in a very early state, and that the next release of software (the beta SDK) won't be for a few months.

My feeling is that they've got something running on their prototypes, but it is buggy and full of hacks and workarounds that they wouldn't want the public to see. The next device is supposed to be far more "mainstream," so I think they're aiming for a great deal of polish on Fremantle, which means far more rigorous testing before release.
