I see what your point is, and i agree, the Android grass isn't any greener, the OS does have the same problems in terms of upgrading. However, just because android doesn't supply that feature, doesn't mean that nokia should not try to create an OS which is upgradable. In my opinion, it's wrong to make the assumption "our competitor doesn't have it, so it's ok if we don't have it too". A dedicated company should always try to be AHEAD of it's competitor. Creating an upgradable mobile OS which isn't tied to certain hardware, is one of the biggest challenges in the industry, i think, and it would be wrong to just ignore this challenge. But well, branding an OS to a certain phone is the mentality from the beginning of mobile phones, so it would require a big change in terms of mentality. I know we can't expect that to happen in the near future, but it's a distant goal to look forward to. I really hope for Nokia, that MeeGo will be the next step towards that goal (i'm a bit pessimistic about that though, since in my eyes they are just trying to copy Android on that part - i don't know the exact bits and pieces so i might be wrong though).

Anyway, i didn't expect that my n900 would get an upgrade, after all i bought a "maemo" phone, not a "meego" phone. The only thing i hope is that nokia won't drop support after PR1.2, and that they support Maemo as much as they support Symbian. I hope for one last big gesture, like giving us Ovi Maps and/or Flash10.1, and then my n900 can die happily. Just a gesture, to give us the feeling that Nokia didn't abandon us. Because i think the feeling of abandonment is one of our biggest let-downs, no?
