Well, the N900 will most likely already be discontinued when the first MeeGo phone is released. My question was for non 'developer' MeeGo handsets in the future and it's sustained 'openness'.

Handset sales?

I can't see it affecting sales numbers significantly. Mainstream users has other things higher in their priority.

Getting more people working on the core such that they don't have to?

This is a reasonable assumption from OSS community view.. but have we seen that happening in the NIT iterations before this? How about all those close bits in N900 that's nagging its performance?
