Both MeeGo Handset UX and MeeGo-Harmattan will have a UI based on the MeeGo Touch framework that was introduced in the Maemo Summit last year as "Harmattan UI Framework". By "Intel's own UX" I guess you mean "MeeGo's own UX". That "UX" includes the system UI and applications. You will see the differences when the MeeGo Handset UX and the MeeGo-Harmattan UX are public, but for now it's not that relevant, really. The foundation and APIs are the same.

I work at Nokia and I started this thread inviting the community to play with MeeGo-Harmattan as soon as it's public in order to make it work in the N900 as good as technically possible. Ys, there is a legal grey area but let's not get obsessed about it now. The first thing is to see if this initiative can deliver something technically usable and useful, with a real user demand beyind the usual tinkerers.
