Could it be retrofitted? Maybe, but I guess it all depends on who sticks around until then. If Nokia decides to spend the effort to get PR 2.0 on the N900 I'd be ecstatic. Not holding my breath though. They've made no indication that that will happen.
It's vanilla Meego that's stripped down (IE no proprietery software but it already has working phone support). Not Harmattan-Meego (which the N900 isn't getting anyway). What will happen is the community will be responsible for any backporting of parts in Harmattan-Meego to Vanilla Meego. Like Flash, Skype, etc..

I think they work but the microphone and handset speaker don't work.

Still, that won't be available until the Harmattan SDK beta releases, so MeeGo handset reference UX should get our focus.
I wouldn't make that a statement of fact. It's dependent on the community to backport the closed bits. So it's up to whatever's left of the developmental community, and from what I've seen we've already lost a few good ones.

"Meamo!" sounds like what Zorro would say to catherine zeta jones... after she slaps him for looking at her dirtily...
