Interestingly when i spoke to orange retentions before departing for tmobile (yes i know they are merging) I was told that the reason they weren't getting the n900 officially on orange was due to it being open source and therefore very hard to support as users would be able to ''mess'' with their own phones.. Obviously the descion to support meego will have been taken at a much higher level than the person i spoke with and it clearly shows an interesting juxtaposition with current orange policy. Lets hope their support does contribute to platform development and not close it down. Would be interesting to see whether orange utimatley plan to offer future android devices too and continue to offer the iphone... if they become a provider who only offer meego smartphone devices then that would be interesting but somehow i doubt that will be the case..
