That means that even you are able to run MeeGo on N900 it would still lack some Nokia-specific features anyway. For exam - GSM/3G driver and all stuff. Or else.

Nokia can't sell only hardware, they need to fill hardware with something unique, which is attractive to buyers.
Too lazy to find the link.. Quim basically said that since the N900 has been officially determined to be the Developer/ARM platform for MeeGo then obviously that would mean it has to work.

So GSM/3G crap should be there. As far as apps and stuff, like Laughing said, thats up in the air. But at the least we should have an OS and a functioning phone.

I still don't understand why Nokia doesn't give more updates on the status of PR1.2. Like, "PR1.2 is still frozen. for testing and to fix some bugs before it is released. We did manage to get a version ready for Hong Kong but some fixes remain for the English language version."

What harm would that sort of status message do?
I don't think anyone disagrees... but we've said this over and over and it hasn't yet changed. It's not likely to any time soon either.
