Let's cry...

nokia don't say that you we will not get me-ego os

Ok, here's what I don't get. We knew that Maemo 5 was transitional. Seriously, we knew that Harmattan was coming, but fact is Harmattan is now transitional too. Forget the fact that it's being called Meego. Meego compatible (as they first referred to it). Harmattan hasn't changed even though they've taken the Meego branding. Isn't Meego as in the Moblin/ Maemo blend separate from Harmattan?

So if people are ok with Harmattan then people should be ok with Maemo 5 right? Forget about the names. I know I'm being pedantic. If Harmattan is Meego-compatible then isn't Fremantle Meego-compatible because of QT?

IMHO with the announcement of Meego (proper), Maemo 5 and Harmattan are both transitional, regardless of what you call it, right?

BTW, even with all of the angst about Meego, the more I use my N900 the more I like it. Is that wrong?
