I highly doubt that they would have one there if it wouldn't be upgradeable to Meego,

Hopefully we n900 users will be able to upgrade to this one later.

Too many If's. There was already speculation about whether the N900 was getting QT 4.6 and Maemo 6, and now that Maemo 6 is just an instance of Meego, probably greater speculation. What happened to the N900/maemo 5 being step 4 of 5? Does the introduction of Meego re-set that step count?

Given the current level of support for the N900 what makes anyone think this will increase now that Nokia have a new focus?

And using an N900 (albeit one that is not clearly identified as any particular device, it just looks like one) in a publicity shot guarantees nothing.
