well maybe MPD is speculating...

on a more general subject, it's really annoying how those threads about release dates (and similar threads) are popping up like mushrooms after the rain. The Signal-to-Noise Ratio in t.m.o is leaning slowly but surely to the Noise side, and that's very unfortunate.

I see a lot of new users in the forum, which is a good indicator that the N900 and Maemo 5 is building up some momentum in the general public, but unfortunately a lot of the aforementioned noise is generated by new users who don't want to use the search function (hint: you may get the information you are looking for faster by using the search function and looking for an answer that has already been posted)...

I don't want to be dismissive of new users (honest!), on the contrary: I really enjoy to see such an enthusiasm around the platform, and I also enjoy helping out as much as I can new users (years of being a TA leave some habits ).

ok, I'll stop ranting here...all my apologies
