- Did you buy that PC with openSuse or with Windows something inside? The question is: are you getting official updates from the vendor you got the PC or the OS from?

- If you got that PC with Windows and now you are relying on a free Linux distro, then the equivalent is to rely on plain open source MeeGo.
Or... he could have built his own PC thus no OS, something that cannot apply to the 770 or any Nokia product at all honestly.

As it stands, the continued support, updates and application development for prior Maemo iterations seem to stop after a few updates. How many more updates are planned for the N900 under the current Maemo 5 platform? Some, none, many?

What will be missing from the MeeGo Community Edition that the MeeGo actual edition (the one that is planned for another device) in regards to the N900?
