I think Intel is actually doing a fair bit through meegozone.com at least. But it's also about who lifts the marketing burden. I personally think the marketing should come from the MeeGo project, with resources and people contributed from the major vendors, not from a specific vendor.. Vendors should advertise their differentiation and their devices..

Charming... I'm sure. But raw, unfiltered videos do not equate to effective communication. Especially when I have to seek them out, doubt their origin and/or credibility. Even though I've seen it through a community I might be a part of (or not a part of), it doesn't mean I'll consider it marketing.
http://twitter.com/meegocom is a good source
