Maemo 5 users will have choices. Some of them will prefer to stay with Maemo 5 updates, some of them will prefer to jump to MeeGo updates (probably with different flavors to choose depending on your preferences).

Thanks, I missed these posts from @qgil and they are recent, so I assume that he is not talking about the Meego version without graphical UI available since 1st April, am I right?

The wiki page still mention that N900 official support for Meego is neither confirmed or denied by Nokia, but the above posts from @qgil seems to confirm that. Am I being too optimistic or it is true indeed?

Regards Maemo 5 updates in case Nokia offers the choice between Maemo and Meego for N900, as I said before it may be a legal obligation in most countries that Nokia keeps supporting Maemo 5 bug corrections (improvements wouldn't apply) for at least some years, and they couldn't obligate the users to migrate to Meego if they don't want. That's for sure one of the things Nokia had to take into account when deciding whether to support Meego on N900 or not!
