The thread title is actually a pretty fair summary of the reason for the countdown, though I don't believe the announcement Elop made referred to the N9 specifically.
  1. In 2010, people wanted Nokia to release, or at least announce, a MeeGo-based product before the end of the year.
  2. Instead, Elop announced that wouldn't be happening, and that news about MeeGo devices would be something that happens in 2011.
  3. It's 2011 now, and Nokia should be announcing something before this year runs out.
  4. So, Dave is counting down to the last possible date Nokia can take action without Elop breaking his word.
