Harmattan project is continuing because it was in a point of no return on it's way to a handset that'll be out somewhere in H2 2010. Some of the software needed in MeeGo to be MeeGo compliant will be from Harmattan, I think.

MeeGo is a project from Linux Foundation and N900 is the reference handset/ARM platform for that development.

This is how I see it, someone correct me if I'm wrong.
That makes much more sense!

I need a lye down - already had a migraine this week don't want another one.

EDIT: Rejoice, rejoice he who is called "qgil" has blessed jla's post - the riddle of the Nokia ancients has been solved!
