I suppose I don't need to say that it's important to keep MeeGo the platform and 'Nokia MeeGo' fairly seperate in terms of marketing. How does Android do marketing?

I don't believe we'll see MeeGo (not related to any devices, that is) commercials on the streets at least.

Pointing out that TWITTER or a WIKI is your marketing, is like your employer announcing, "The new company health plan is Google." It's lazy marketing and a poor substitute for actual marketing. Marketing is defined as selling your brand TO THE MARKET--the MARKET... hence marketing. Twitter and Wiki's are for people who know what they're looking for. Lazy. Damned lazy and stupid. I can't believe you even attempted to cite that as MeeGo's attempt at marketing.

Even before it was truly ready for prime-time, Android had and still is marketed HEAVILY online, on television and all over the place by all of the vendors and carriers who've adopted the operating system and promote the quality of the operating system by showing that Android can DO things. (i.e. Verizon's "Droid Does" ads are an excellent example.) How have Intel and Nokia promoted MeeGo? What you provided was an appalling citation of marketing effort and I insist that you provide us with evidence of something compelling that actually introduces MeeGo to the market.

Also--and more importantly, weren't we actually talking about how Nokia hasn't communicated any sort of denial that they're going to do WP7 or Android?
