So you would rather wait until Q2 2011 before seeing a Nokia MeeGo device? Don't forget the most important thing from a developer standpoint is Qt. Qt works on the N900, Maemo/MeeGo hybrid and MeeGo proper devices. The pieces that are different shouldn't bother most developers of end user applications.

And Nokia could easily end upgrade fears by saying that the Maemo/MeeGo hybrid devices will be upgradable to Nokia MeeGo version XX when its available.

That's was the issue with the N900, basically know one knew if it was going to be upgradable and know one at Nokia was saying.
