I really hope the team behind Maemo were not dissolved or cut down, they are clearly talented guys, but it would make a lot of sense looking at the situation with outsiders eyes. I really thought Nokia would pick this ball up and run with it, that maemo was the OS of the future. It's pretty disheartening that the project is already dead. We go into a MeeGo future, what that means for us as N900 owners and potential developers I don't know... I know little about Moblin, and that alone doesnt fill me with a lot of confidence about the partnership. I wish someone from Nokia would just come out and say what the future plans of the n900 is in plain black and white. If we're getting MeeGo or Maemo 6 or whatever then great, tell us what that means for us and get us excited about it.. If not, well at least let us know and we can stop speculating/cut our losses/look into other alternatives to own/develop on. It's fine to say Nokia owes us nothing, we paid the money and got the handset that was offered at that price.. but just from a sense of customer focus, developing confidence in the brand with consumers and developers, and all round respect for the community it would be nice.

Meh.. preparing to be told to quit moaning and go buy a fruitphone..:P

Edit: Just reading the "Nokia promises.. perhaps not." thread, my post would probably have been more suited to that thread. I'm not sure I'm fond of the future strategy suggested in Ari's blog comments and the idea that it would be the responsibility of the community to port MeeGo to the n900.. hmm wait and see..
